Looking for an exciting career that can open up opportunities to travel and work in areas vital to global society? It's hard to top a career in logistics. Global logistics expert Rodrigo Alonso Salas Musso offers insights regarding careers in the field.
"Your career choice is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make," says Rodrigo Salas Musso. "I know I made the right choice by working in global logistics, and for many others, it's also the right choice. The work is often challenging, but in a good way that keeps you engaged and active."
Global logistics is one of the most complex industries in the world. There is often a lot of moving parts, and frequently companies are acting on tight timelines. Further, when challenges emerge, like pandemics and conflicts, it frequently impacts logistics.
Some folks might not enjoy the pressure. However, many will find the work engaging. Many jobs, whether in offices or factories, can become monotonous, and the hours may stretch for seemingly forever. With logistics, engagement is high; thus, for many people, the work passes quickly.
Of course, Rodrigo Alonso Salas Musso notes pay and benefits are a significant concern for potential employees. Fortunately, many careers in logistics offer excellent pay. Further, there's a lot of diversity regarding roles. While many folks are engaged in hands-on work, say physically moving goods, the need for technology workers, data specialists, and other similar roles are also high.
Further, because the demand is high for labor power, it's often easy for workers to find jobs. If someone lands in a role or company that doesn't mesh well, finding a new position and transferring skills is often relatively straightforward. Many people also experience wanderlust; logistics can certainly open up opportunities to see different parts of the world.
Breaking into the logistics industry requires effort. Prior experience is crucial for many roles-education may be a requirement, both on the job and at universities or similar institutions.
"If you're going the college path, it's typically pretty easy to find programs that focus specifically on logistics. These programs are a great place to start," argues Rodrigo Salas Musso. "You may also find apprenticeships that provide excellent hands-on training. Many such programs also offer pay."
It's wise to contact local logistics companies to see if there are any available opportunities, even if you don't have a degree in logistics. Also, unions may offer apprenticeship programs and similar opportunities. Frequently, it's possible to find information regarding programs and open jobs on company websites. Anyone having trouble breaking into the industry should consider widening their search to other regions or countries. A willingness to relocate may open up opportunities.
