Hello I am looking to pivot careers. I’ve worked in warehousing, shipping and logistics my entire life. I don’t have much experience else where. How do I find the right move to make?

You’ll want to consider things like any prior training you may have had. As an example, if you have an engineering degree, now is the time to use it to make some money and improve your life by having a job you’re more interested (and more lucrative). Generally the jobs requiring both prior experience and a college degree are going to be paying more

Depends a lot on your specific experience and industry, as well as, why you’re leaving warehousing. Why are you looking to move?

I seem to be getting stuck with companies that don’t value their employees. It’s left a bad impression on me. I’ve been doing this so long working in the same conditions.
