There is polarization in the logistics industry. First of all, the entry threshold is low, and the requirements for junior positions (compared with positions that do not require much experience, for example) are lower. Some can even do it in high school and technical secondary school (of course, there are more college students in these two years, and older companies will require junior college). To tell the truth, in some projects I handle, in order to save costs, it is recommended to use employees with lower academic qualifications. On the one hand, the cost is low, on the other hand, the turnover rate may be low. Management positions in the logistics industry (not only managers, managers and other management positions, but also some management planning positions) require academic qualifications or experience (preferably rich experience) or even high education plus rich experience. It is precisely these positions, whether doing logistics in enterprises, third-party logistics, fourth-party logistics, or consulting companies, can get higher income and treatment.

However, if you want to be a senior post in the logistics industry, analytical ability is very important, and logical thinking should be clear (similar to the ability to kiss up and learn larded, which is a universal law, so I won't say it here).
