My apologies if this isn’t the right question. Looking to break into logistic (Not as a driver) most like a coordinator can you make at least 800 dollars net? Which jobs in logistics pay you decent money as an entry level that does not required you to be a truck driver? I have a bachelors degree but is in law nothing related to logistics. Thanks!

Oh yeah you definitely need to try to get some experiences in Operations, Strategy, Logistics and Supply Chain.

I joined Amazon last year straight out of college, and I’m already at 85k-100k a year. However, I had relevant experiences and interned in the industry. I’m based in the South.

A logistics/supply interview at Amazon has 7 rounds, 1 hour each with people from your department, including the Principal.

Networking will be your best friend too, especially if you are targeting a well known supply chain company.

Best!

This is so helpful. Thank you so much, A1.

Also, I would recommend you look into Logistics and Supply Chain Investigations. People in that field come from legal background and they’re usually in charge of investigating supply chain issues and implementing legal procedures in response.

This sound like something that I would definitely enjoy doing. Thanks for the advice

It's possible to make at least $800 net as an entry-level logistics coordinator, but it depends on various factors such as your location, company, and experience. The national average salary for a logistics coordinator in the United States is around $44,000 per year, which translates to approximately $3,667 per month before taxes. However, salaries can range from around $30,000 to $60,000 per year, depending on the factors mentioned above.

As for entry-level jobs in logistics that don't require driving, there are many opportunities in areas such as supply chain management, inventory control, and warehouse operations. Some entry-level positions you could consider include: Logistics Coordinator, Inventory Control Specialist, Supply Chain Analyst, Operations Support Specialist, and/or Warehouse Supervisor

Thank you

It is possible to make at least $800 net per month in logistics-related roles without being a truck driver. Positions such as Logistics Coordinator, Logistics Analyst, Logistics Manager, and Inventory Control Specialist may offer a salary of at least that amount. Your background in law may be beneficial depending on the role, as many of these positions require excellent problem-solving and analytical skills. If you are interested in these roles, research job postings for companies in the logistics field, and submit applications for those which interest you.

I think you need to at least have relevant experience. That will be crucial since your degree is not related at all.

Hi, OP! How about getting a certification? That would be a great option. But yes, it is possible to earn at least $800 without being a truck driver.

Im open to the idea. Any specific certifications you suggest? I am willing to put some hours during the day to get these online.

Of course, it is possible. There are some roles that do not require any experience. But of course, your experience would be an edge.

When you say your salary jumped __x, how is that exactly calculated?

Mine was $16k (minimum wage before joining corporate) > $40k (contractor total before getting laid off) > $150k (current FT)?

Is that a 260% jump or 2.6x from $16k to $40k?
And a 375% jump or 3.75x from $40k to $150k?

Or do I calculate it by hourly rate?
