If I've said it once I've said it a 1000 times, KBD has been by far my favorite team to be a part of. They really care about each individual driver. They care about our health (mental and physical), our family life, our financial well being, etc. I can't express enough how thankful I am to have the opportunity to be part of the KBD family. To Cindy, Bruce, Pam and the rest of the KBD team, Thank you for making coming to work enjoyable.

KBD is a great place to work. The staff are all friendly and helpful. They are organized and efficient. From sign up to everyday issues. They are thoughtful and professional. Other drivers are also very helpful. The 12 days of Christmas has been fun something to look forward to everyday. Thank you to everyone who has made me feel welcomed. Looking forward to the upcoming year.

dRiver Mentor TRAINEE

 
Lacking driving or border crossing experience?  Consider our Mentoring Program, an opportunity to gain practical hands-on training with an experienced mentor.

How the mentoring Program works

Drivers participate in a hands-on program under the guidance of a mentor, safely gaining practical experience on the road while learning how to comply with hours-of-service, vehicle inspections, and load securement.  Drivers learn company policies and procedures, best practices, safety and security, as well as many helpful tips to enhance their quality of life while on the road.

Each week, a drivers' progress is evaluated to determine the following week's module of training. Drivers initially travel in truck with their mentor between Ontario and Quebec, then, when ready, progress to cross-border shipments, driving between Canada and the U.S..  The length of training depends on the skill and experience of the driver, which will determine when each module is mastered, and may range from 2 weeks to 3 months.
​
While training, a driver receives pay of $150 per day.  Once assigned to their own truck, drivers earnings will follow the company driver pay scale.

It is a family oriented company.  Not just a number here at KBD.  The office knows every drivers name and who their spouses are.  They care about you and your family.  They want to make sure that things are good not only on the road but with your family.

I love working for KBD because when you love what you do, you tend to feel a sense of purpose and belonging.  Whether it's because your company's values align with your own or you feel valued for your contributions, your working hours tend to pass by faster and you can often leave work feeling upbeat at the end of each workday when you love your job.  While every day may not be amazing, a job you genuinely love will help you maintain a positive attitude on even the most challenging days.
