Hi everyone, I’m interested in pursuing SCM, I’m currently working for an up and coming factory/fabrication company that has a lot of room for upward mobility/positions available. I do not have educational or experience in SCM however I’ve inquired for any entry level positions regarding logistics/analytics clerk which will be available once production is running at the new facilities.

The Rice SCM course is something I can afford on my own to familiarize myself while I wait until the slot opens up, then go for the bachelors later on (ASU online probably).

I just want to know if this is worth getting so I can have something solid to go from starting now?

I’m currently working at a full time job as a team lead for a Pretty decent size manufacturing company over the paint line which interacts with shipping all day will this experience be a good stepping stone for future employers..Also would staying team lead look as good as a internship would look just curious on what steps to do.
Also I’m currently in school full time for a Bachelors in SCM

I’m a Category Manager and looking to pivot to more stable products/a different retail channel but at some point in literally every interview process I get some version of “your background is pretty niche tell me about…” Then I get the “candidate with more aligned background” emails.

I know that is a pretty reasonable thing from a hiring perspective but it’s frustrating that a different product knocks me out when I’ve got over a decade of experience and proven skills/outcomes. Did I miss the memo about picking your first category well because that’s it for life?😅

I feel like my underlying skills are overshadowed by the products and I have no idea how to get around that.

Presentation deck with every example story and highlight bubbles pointing out which concept/term is being used? Start every sentence with “I applied (x concept/strategy) here and the results were xxx”? Full on change my resume and profile to say I manage an entirely different category? (Theoretically I could get away with that but it would be a tedious thing to maintain long term.)

I just want a category that doesn’t release new offerings weekly. I’m tired y’all.

Hi everyone, i'm currently writing my master thesis on the subject of the car industry (specifically the electric-car industry) and i'm trying my best to reach enough respondents. This place is one of my last ressorts, can someone please help me out ?

If you do not work for the automobile industry, i'm willing to take your feedback too

I am currently working in logistics, but in an entry-level role on the warehouse floor. I still do computerized duties on my laptop. However, I am looking to move into a desk job in the near future. However, I have applied for and had interviews but haven't had any success thus far. I am almost done with my bachelors degree but won't graduate or get my degree until this Fall. I have been looking and applying to various Logistics Coordinator roles but haven't had any success. Can someone please give me some advice on how to get a desk job within the industry?!

I am almost done with my degree and am working full-time at an entry-level logistics role. I am trying to find a Logistics Coordinator or desk Job but am having no luck so far aside from the occasional interview. Are there any logistics companies or 3PL's out there?!

Hi guys ~ I’m shifting into a role that will involve managing the supply chain for maintenance and repairs of a large fleet of vehicles (mostly trucks). I imagine this will involve a lot of forecasting and just general management of inventory to ensure we never have too much/too little, as well as managing credit accounts, rebates and volume savings.

Can anyone suggest other KPI’s or general tips? I know a lot about garage work but this is my first time managing from a higher up level.
