In this episode, Matt and Saki discuss your career prospects -- and it's quite possible that there has never been a better time to improve them.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been challenging on many fronts. However, as is often the case, these difficult times have come with unique opportunities.

If you are spending too much time on one and not enough on the other, you won't want to miss this episode!
