Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores seeks to hire new employees for full-time and part-time roles as tire technicians, mechanic apprentices and diesel mechanics at its one-day hiring event. The event will take place on Feb. 25 from 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. at more than 380 Love’s Truck Care Center and Speedco locations across the country.
Applicants interested in full-time or part-time positions can visit any Love’s Truck Care Center or Speedco location and learn more about working at Love’s and be interviewed on-site. Qualified candidates can be offered jobs on the spot contingent upon pre-screening requirements and will receive a free hot dog and drink when they apply.
Interested candidates should bring copies of their resume. They must possess a valid driver’s license and expect to submit to a drug screen. Eligible full-time employees can take advantage of Love’s health and wellness benefits, including 401(k) with matching contributions, medical, dental, vision and life insurance coverage, flexible scheduling, holiday pay and competitive weekly pay among other benefits. Part-time employees are also eligible for dental, vision, telemedicine and other voluntary benefits.
“Love’s is a great place to build a career, and we’re excited to build off last year’s momentum,” said Drew Graham, director of operations for Love’s. “Our team is our number one asset and is crucial to ensuring our operations run smoothly for customers, so this is an important event for us.”
Love’s mechanic apprenticeship program allows apprentices to earn a competitive wage while working toward the designation of a diesel mechanic. Upon successful completion of the apprentice program, apprentices will receive a tool kit valued at $3,500, which is theirs to keep after one year of employment as a mechanic. Newly hired diesel mechanics can make between $22 and $27 an hour.
