Yellow Corporation (NASDAQ: YELL) is recruiting
employees for new positions in Irving, Texas. On Wednesday, April
21 and Thursday, April 22, Yellow will host a hiring event as the

By the end of 2021, Yellow aims to hire thousands of new employees
nationwide with at least 1,500 of those positions earmarked for
commercial drivers.
“Seventy percent of America’s freight moves on our nation’s
highways, so it’s essential that the industry continue to ramp up
hiring to keep the U.S. supply chain humming along,” said Darren
Hawkins, Chief Executive Officer of Yellow.
“Yellow pays very competitive wages and offers outstanding
healthcare benefits for employees,” said Mr. Hawkins. “For those
with trucking experience or not, or folks looking for a new
