Real early.

never
3 :
depends where your friend will be living exactly but for example, if they were living in Santa Clarita area and want to get to downtown L.A. I would leave by 7am or if they want to push it by 7:30 am to be there by 9 am. It all really depends where they will be travelling from (and maybe even how well they can maneuver through traffic)
4 :
Have him set off at 5am at the latest.
5 :
depends on whether he has to take the freeway because a 15 min drive can easily become an hour and a half, especially if he is driving towards LA in the morning.
6 :
Yeah, Never. It's never a good time to drive in LA. your friend will lose half his life in traffic there. Be warned!
7 :
Sunday mornings, and late nights - that goes for all big cities. If your friend wants to be there at 9AM, depending upon how far away the job is, I would say to leave MINIMUM 2 hours before he has to be there.
8 :
around midnight and take breakfast with him and sleep in the parking garage until 8:30, more power to him but have you seen the television shows that show the commuting around there, it's scary.
9 :
hhhhmmm shd be ard 5.30am cos i start work at lax by 7am

Depends which part of L.A you live in, L.A is enormous and its got horrible traffic.
2 :
When they say local only they mean applicants from within the Southland. They do not want to have to deal with people moving from out of state. And Torrance to Santa Monica or Beverly Hills is a rather short commute by LA standards. One of the engineers where I work in South Orange County commutes from Torrance. I commute 20 miles each way myself to and from work.
3 :
If you're desperate for the job, then I would take it. Commuting even a short distance in LA is bad, but what can you do- you need money. If the job is in downtown you might be able to take the MTA blue line. Local applicants means anyone in southern California. In other words, they aren't going to provide relocation assistance.
4 :
30 minute drive would be OK.
5 :
Driving in L.A. would be great if it wasn't for the fact that half the drivers on the roads are idiots.......the other half are morons. I live less than 20 minutes from where I work in a mid-size Ventura County city. Morning traffic is nothing using surface streets, coming home we have the same problem as in L.A. Too many people is the problem....and little, if any, enforcement of traffic laws.
