Struggling to Land a Job in Supply Chain—Need Advice
Hey everyone,
I’ve been trying to land a job in the supply chain field for about a year now, and I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. I have a Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management in 2023 and an Associate's in Business Administration from community college. My experience includes nearly a decade of management, logistics, inventory control, purchasing, and customer service as a Store Manager at The UPS Store.
Despite my education and experience, I’m struggling to get interviews or land a role in the field. I’m not sure if I’m applying for the right jobs, asking for the right pay, or if my resume/approach needs major changes.
For those who’ve successfully transitioned into supply chain roles, what worked for you? Are there specific job titles I should be focusing on? Should I lower my salary expectations to get my foot in the door? Are there certifications or skills I should develop to be more competitive?
Any insights, recommendations, or success stories would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
