Are you seeing more job seekers fighting for fewer roles these days? How will you stand out or make the right career move in a job market? Let's hear from today's guest, Charlie Saffro of CS Recruiting, explaining the real condition of the job market!

Charlie covers how "job hugging" has become the new normal for professionals, how compensation has shifted from inflated pandemic packages to more conservative and growth-focused offers, the reality of the freight agent model, where independence can mean big rewards but comes with steep costs and serious hustle, and the rising importance of soft skills and authentic personal branding on LinkedIn.
