Recruiting drivers in 2004 paid off in a big way for Maverick Driver Mike Merrill, as he was recently awarded Maverick’s 2004 Referral Winner of the Year.

Merrill, a resident of Beebe, AR, has driven for Maverick for almost 2 years. As winner, he will receive a vacation valued at $1,700, a week of paid vacation from work, and an additional $500 of spending money. “My wife and I have 5 children, so this prize is definitely a blessing for all of us. The referral prize is just icing on the cake. Since I came on board at Maverick, we’ve become financially able to live an all around higher standard of life.”

As for his success in referring drivers, Merrill says, “Working for Maverick really sells itself. I always try to help fellow flatbedders out, whether they work for Maverick or not. This usually strikes up a conversation and we often end up talking about working at Maverick.”

Maverick implements a comprehensive Driver Referral Program annually with an emphasis on rewarding employees for their dedication to the fleet and the future of the company. “A majority of the new drivers we hire are referred by other Maverick drivers,” said Maverick President and COO Stephen Selig. “We value our Referral Program, as we reward those who take part in the company’s truck driver recruiting efforts.”

Based in Little Rock, Arkansas and operating almost 1,000 units, Maverick is approaching 25 years of providing flatbed trucking services to the steel and building material industries coast-to-coast. The company has a variety of driving job opportunities available for over-the-road drivers.
