I live in the United States. I started as an order puller when I was 17 years old. A couple of years later I got a job as a forklift driver. I went back to school at a community college at the age of 28. I got an associates degree in logistics and supply chain management. Once I got my degree I worked as a customer service rep/order processor. I recently just got a job as an assistant logistics manager, making 20k MORE per year than my previous position! My suggestion: start somewhere in this industry. (Order puller, inbound/outbound, forklift, dock worker, etc..). Get an associates in business/logistics/supply chain. Find a better paying job. Then work on your bachelors online while working full-time. Then when you get your bachelor's, try to move up! Yes.. it's a grind. But it's worth it!

Hi sir, thanks for sharing this video. I was one of those jobseeker who struggle with unemployment, life, jobs, etc. I used to be unemployed for quite some time. I came from a Science background(Biology). In my country, jobs for science graduate are not that many (but the graduates are getting more & more), even if there is, it requires experience to apply. Then i work for odd jobs here & there, as cashier, barista, factory operator, etc. I can't afford to restart my education background to get another costly degree. Its really frustrating. After applying to so many jobs & industries, luckily, i got a logistics related job. Its like a lifesaving moment for me when so many industries rejected me, but the Supply Chain industry accepted me. Now, its been years working & i plan to get a CMILT qualification. Btw I just realized that the CEO of the company that I work, was of Science background(Neurobiology). He is Frank Appel. I really want to be like him 1 day. Sorry for the long writing haha

I agree with everything you mentioned, except a networking networking in my experience, is the biggest waste of time. There’s absolutely no guarantee that you will ever get results in my personal anecdotal experience networking has been a large expenditure of energy with little to no results. Think of it this way if you’re not qualified, no matter how good your networking is, you’re not going to get the position. Instead, focus on qualifications certifications experience, then whether you have network power or not, you are a strong candidate.
@supplychainsecrets Жыл бұрын
I would agree, that if you are not qualified, networking may not be as useful. But if you are not qualified for a role, any job hunting strategy will be tougher. I still maintain, that networking is one of the most powerful ways to secure a job. At least in the countries I have worked in. UK, Australia.

With engineering knowledge can work out the cost, specifications and certain decisions. So , in this contemporary world, multiple discipline skills are required for a sustainable growth, companies are cost cutting with firing employees, so a multidisciplinary skills are needed, so that's why? Anything wrong?? What's your take?

Hi Rob. I have been binge watching your videos. Great content! I have been in supply chain for about 10 years and am looking for advancement. Most positions I like require experiences of large data set analysis and hands on knowledge of ERP such as SAP, both I am not able to acquire from my current job. What would you advise I could do to overcome this?

Very hard to advise with a detailed knowledge of each University, the current programs, and how they are regarded by industry. I would pick the course and University that 'feels' right for you. What's in the program, the location, all of it. Re Bachelor v Masters? Most would do Bachelor first, get some experience and then do Masters. I never had the opportunity to read for a Bachelor degree and ended up doing a Masters later in life.

I am going to college for a 4 year business admin degree. I am currently debating on focusing on supply chain management. In America I’ve discovered the software SAP Materials management is huge for this line of work. It has given me the impression though that this line of work will be a lot of screen time doing data entry in the SAP software system. Is this true for entry level positions? After promotion to a supply chain manager, in general how much do you think they spend in the SAP software? Or whatever software it would be. It seems like an exiting career in that you are involved in a wide aspect of the business. Thanks for your time!
@supplychainsecrets2 жыл бұрын
I think most 'management' jobs involve a lot of screen time these days. It's a large part of how we communicate and monitor the business. Don't overthink entry level positions though. Things and your interests will change during your career. Getting started is the key. (SAP is only one of the popular systems used)
