    They seem to have lost documents I hand delivered to them less than 2 weeks ago (recruiter had just left for day, I left with receptionest), so I had to take off of the work I was doing at the time, drive over 140 miles to bring new copies and see recruiter in person to try and expedite the process to still make the orientation on the 9th.

    Got my fingers crossed, KLLM really seems to be pretty decent company for new hire these days, from what I've researched.

    K, talked to Mike today, I have FINALLY really been approved for orientation but he says there are not enough trainers for me to go on the 9th, so I will be going the following week on the 16th. The only weird part about that is that he originally told me they only have orientation every 2 weeks now and not EVERY week.

    I think there is a guy named Brian there that I went to school with. Please, tell him I (Alvin) said hello and I'll be in the very next group there.

    Good luck with the process!

    Talked with Mike again today. He told me that, yes, they only do new hire orientation every 2 weeks, but since I've waited as long as I have (and I think he knows my first batch of hand-delivered paper work was lost between front desk and his desk) that he is going to get me in the off week orientation next monday the 16th which is usually just for lead drivers. Hope it works right this time!

    hey everyone, new to the board here and to the industry. been looking at posts for awile now and wanted to say thanks to everyone that has posted about kllm. I got out of school beginning of october and have used this site to do alot of good research on companys and kllm seems to come out on top for me. I was just wondering if there is any other newbies going down for orientation on the 1st of dec. I will try to keep up with posts about my experience with them has been good so far dealing with mike he has been very helpful.
     
    JustSonny Thanks this.

    I dont know if there is a wait or not I just know he told me this was the only time i could get in if i wanted to go. even tho i will have to miss xmas with the family they seem like a good company and seems to be worth the sacrifice.
