Default p.a.m transport

Has anyone here been through it? I may be attending the one in Ak, and am just curious what to expect. I have no previous truck driving experience, so am completely new to all of this. They claim to cover all of my school costs if I work for them for a year (the standard deal from what I have seen elsewhere), will give me $200 for expenses (although obviously will need to bring some more of my own for a 3 week course), and all I will actually have to pay out of my pocket is a state licensing charge which they aren't legally able to cover.

Sounds like a good deal to me, or at least the best one that you can expect to get, and from my brief look over this site it seems that they are considered a pretty decent company. And the school there are sending me to is driver solutions and is that a good school

Default PAM - Alaska (AK) ?

attending the one in Ak I think you mean the school in Arkansas (AR). Do an archives search of "Drivers Solutions", they train for more than one carrier. Is attending a community college not a possibility for you, maybe a better deal. BTW, do you have it in writing that PAM will hire you? Pay attention to the freight companies going out of business, that means more experienced drivers available to hire and the possible decrease in pay. BOL

My brother has worked for pam for about 6 months and is happy. He stays out for month or so at a time then takes his home time for 2 or 3 days.
