Hiring on as a driver

What are some good companies to look to for hiring on as a driver? Also, does the location of the company matter? In other words if I am in Ky should I stay away from a west coast owner or company?
Thank all you for you help

RE: Hiring on as a driver

I think the initial answer to this would be the same as the answer of who to sign a truck on with. You need to research the various companies and determine which are stronger for teams and which are stronger for solos. You need to learn which have freight that regularly runs somewhere reasonably near your home. It doesn't matter where the company is headquartered as long as they have the freight to keep you running and getting in and out of home.

There are numerous threads discussing what to look for as a fleet owner and as a fleet driver. Keep reading the forums and you will read many.
