Logistics manages the flow of goods from supplier to consumer. This can mean delivering a package to you or delivering raw products to a manufacturer to be made into a finished product.

Because logistics is part of every industry, you could work in any industry. The logistics business is fast-paced because of the need to stay on schedule, and working overtime when a problem arises to make sure everything stays on schedule isn’t uncommon.

While you can get started in some logistics positions without a bachelor’s degree, having a degree and some business training will help. You should also have good critical thinking skills, be able to work in a fast-paced environment, and be able to keep calm when things don’t go right.
