Mobility in transportation employment
Charlie Saffro - CEO - CS Consulting - Chicago, IL

There’s also the possibility, inadvertently or not, of people talking to individuals at another company and trying to get them to change companies - especially in cases where certain companies need certain types of people. What are you hearing about people being targeted for jobs at other companies?
It used to be that people were getting a new job for a substantial raise, thus the great resignation. Now it seems like people are getting a new job for job security - is that the way to go if they don’t feel settled in their current position?
