    S5 E15: The EMPLOYER RANSOM: Charging to Verify Previous Employment?!
    Aug 13 2025

    The trucking industry's recruiting nightmare just got a whole lot worse. In this explosive episode of Sense Per Mile, we're exposing a shocking new trend where some employers are now charging carriers to respond to legally required employment verifications.

We’ll break down exactly how this new ransom is making it even more impossible to get new drivers on the road and what this means for the future of trucking.
