@ Op let me guess your salary.

hahahaha....the purpose of this thread is not to tell how much I earn, it's to describe my situation and to inspire people.

"I got a job in a funny industry (logistics and supply chain)" Really? Firstly, Log & SC is a field that is required in EVERY industry. It also appears to be the FUTURE of large businesses as it entails enterprise management, warehousing, logistics and distribution, Planning/scheduling, procurement, project management, operations and etcetera.

I work in an O & G as a SC professional and you can't imagine how valuable people in this field (SC) earn, especially when you have the IT tool tech-know-how required e.g. SAP-PM, MM, Fi, CO, RLM and so on. It is a great field and also with higher degrees in SC from reputable institutions, international certifications related to the field, you'll soar higher.

My background is in Physics, but I joined the SC field and acquired some certs in procurement & logistics, as well as an MSc. in Oprs & SC from Liverpool and with over 8 years experience in the field and in O & G, I'm enjoying my career. I even get offers from other fields like medicine, pharmacy, bottling companies, airlines, marine, engineering, and many moreI because operations & supply chain mgt is very vast.

Thanks for your response. I didn't intend to undermine the profession in any way, abeg no vex. As of the time I got into logistics and supply chain, I didn't know much about it and how easily you can fit into roles in a wide range of industries.you know Nigerian graduates and the oil and gas dream, lol.But now my mindset is different. I really admire you profile, nice one.

KevinDein:

Hello everyone, I started working in 2013 after completing the compulsory NYSC. I finished with a 2.2 although narrowly missed out on 2.1.

I got a job in a funny industry (logistics and supply chain). I thought the industry was funny because I had hoped to start working in oil and gas and earning good six digits from the first day, lol.
I picked the job earning 5 digits as a contract staff and started learning the rudiments of logistics. Although there were times the salary was very discouraging, I stayed on the job because I wanted to build my experience. I remained a contract staff for over a year but gained good experience. Although I was offered permanent employment with improved pay, I wasn't satisfied because I knew deep down in my heart that I deserved more. I Was very loyal to my bosses and kept fighting on my knees and got some cool certifications.

My job came by referral, A foreigner that has worked with me before headhunted me, I didn't need to undergo any form of interview. My interview was just a chat, briefing me about the new role and the profile of the company I was to join. My new salary is more than 3 times what I earned in the previous company with other mouth-watering benefits attached.

I kept praying for a ''miracle job'' the whole time and also told God I didn't care how he would do it. I got disappointed many times after going for interviews with my experience and wasn't called back/got regret mails. I didn't know God was preparing mine to be a complete miracle.

Thanks for taking the time to read this post and I sincerely hope my story can inspire someone. Happy Sunday!!!
