"What's really changed is that the availability of jobs, certainly in the knowledge worker, has never been greater." - Evan Sohn

So, when Evan’s team reached out to me for a podcast chat, I was prepared for a very techy conversation. But that is not the case. I was surprised and happy with the outcome and believe many listeners will enjoy the sharp, crisp, and very pragmatic chat that I had with Evan a few weeks ago.

Evan goes back to basics and reinforces many messages we have heard before on this podcast. One of those key messages is the need to know your superpower, career DNA, or exceptional talents.
