  • Mobility in transportation employment

    Charlie Saffro - CEO - CS Consulting - Chicago, IL

    1. Charlie, we’re seeing lots of layoffs and obviously some repositioning of a lot of pieces right now - how hectic is the world of recruiting at the moment?

    2. One of the interesting points we talked about on a show last week was high level executives moving from one company to another - like the head of Uber Freight going to Flexport.  What are you hearing in terms of moves like that?

    3. 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?

        Karl Fillhouer - VP of Sales - Circle Logistics - Phoenix, AZ


        1. How big of a problem is double brokering in your experience/?

        2. TIA president Anne Reinke said that double brokering is a safety issue and not just a crime of commerce - should the FMCSA have more legal boudaries when it comes to double brokering or should stopping or deterring potential double brokers come under someone else’s jurisdiction?

        3. What’s the right way to deal with this situation when it happens?

        4. Would you agree with Craig Fuller that load boards need to bear some of the blame for double brokering?
