Intro
Not every Splendid Edition will be an in-depth review of what’s happening in a specific industry. Sometimes, we’ll have to look at what’s happening across them to gain the right perspective.
This week, it’s time to take a look at the job market.
If you know somebody that is looking for a job or somebody that is hiring, you might want to forward this newsletter to them.
