Job Search: List of the top 8 Supply Chain and Logistics Associations

January 25th, 2010

We have compiled a list of the top 8 sites for Supply Chain and Logistics Associations to help you with your career search. Many of these sites offer job postings which you will not find on the major job boards so you can get a leg up on finding a new position.

With the employment market being as competitive as ever now is a great time to go back and finish up those certifications as well. Although many corporations will not rule you out, a candidate with relevant certifications may reach the top of the resume stack before one without.

November 16th, 2009

With everyday you see a list new out about what jobs are hot and what industries have the best paying wages but these articles leave out one of the hottest prospects, Supply Chain Careers.

While many jobs are being outsourced there is one portion of the market that is growing and that is careers within the Supply Chain. Whether or not the product is manufactured in the United States or over seas the product still must be purchased or manufactured, warehoused and distributed which is why we will continue see positions for opening for those in Supply Chain such as Distribution Managers, Purchasing Professionals, Import\Export Experts and Logistics.
