    Do you drive for them? I see you can read their site in polish so is this another of the Chicago foreign owned scam companies we hear so much about? Legitimate question, not trying to offend. How much do they charge for the school if you want to pay upfront?

    They're actually a legitimate company. Pretty good sized with good looking equipment. Try to keep an open mind when talking about companies based in or near Chicago. There are a few diamonds in the rough.

    Experior has a terminal near my house. They advertise high cpm on what I *believe* is a 1099 setup.

    Not my cup of tea, but it works for others.

    Ask prospective companies how they do their training. Often it means team driving with the trainer sleeping in the bunk while the trainee drives.

    Magnum is one that doesn’t do that. The trainee dose virtually all of the driving. It’s one of the better training programs in the industry. Getting home with them would also be pretty easy they run through that area heavy. It’s worth giving tony the recruiter a call to get all of the details.
     
    Goldenfan, VinceBlack and Notmymonkey Thank this.

    I tried looking at their jobs but their website is giving me an error.. will reach out
    Do you know anyone currently working here? I think I've seen their trucks but didn't realize they were local.

    This was something I was looking for in my training as well. Freymiller also doesn't do team training. The DT (Driver Trainer) sits in the passenger seat while you drive and you work off of one clock.
