I am a sophomore student at Saginaw Valley Stat University with a major in Supply Chain Management and Economics minor. I have always had a passion for getting a job the agriculture industry, but what other industries are great to look into for supply chain/logistics work? Or what advice would you have a for a student in my shoes. I am set to graduate in fall 2023 and would love to start getting my name out to as many companies as possible. Thank you!

I'd say manufacturing or transportation would be your two best bets if you want to focus on supply chain/logistics.

Transportation is a good one, also look at 3PL and logistics startups. Lots of cool ones using AI and tech to make supply chain better and optimize processes which could be interesting too

Came here to say transportation. Telemetrics are huge right now. If you have existing connections in agriculture, however, plan to leverage those. Relationships will often get you farther faster, and if you can be happy in that vertical there's no reason to leave.

I agree that transportation is the next best option for you. But agriculture is a big industry here and they might be needing new graduates like yourself. Good luck

Hey 🐠, curious your thoughts on two roles. 27m finishing non-MBA grad school while working. First I’d a manager-level BD role for a startup (but public) company im really excited/energized by. 150k base with 15% bonus and equity. Second is a senior manager level growth & partnerships role for a slightly larger company that’s cool but I’m less enthusiastic about. 165k with 20% bonus and equity. Ignoring equity considerations, would you take the job with lower pay if the company is more exciting?
