From the point of view of work risk, freight forwarding.

The document OP only needs to deliver the correct information in the mail, and all the risks can be avoided by you. Therefore, bosses like to recruit steady, down-to-earth, and careful people in this position. And girls are generally introverted and are very suitable for this position.

In fact, freight forwarding is still a multi-level job, because you need to dock more work and links, such as your relationship with customers, customs, and operations, so you especially need your patience and carefulness, even if a small detail is wrong, it will become a sad thing to lose "God".

Under normal circumstances, the seller and the buyer have long-term cooperation, and occasionally there is some problem, if it will not cause economic losses to the buyer, the buyer will not arbitrarily terminate the relationship with us, because the ultimate purpose of the sale is to make everyone make money

But freight forwarding is different, even if it is a small mistake, or the responsibility does not lie with you at all, such as powerlessness.

The customs sampling, or the manpower can not reach the traffic congestion and lateness, etc., but the customer does not feel so, he will only ask which cherry why my goods have not arrived, why my goods can not be cleared, in this case, it is easy to cause us to over.

Therefore, freight forwarders are actually concerned about how to develop customers, and should pay more attention to the later maintenance of customers, if you can calmly deal with customs, customers, and operations, then I think you have a good prospect in the freight forwarding industry.

In a certain concept, it seems that only the freight forwarding operation team is the person closest to the delivery business in the whole freight forwarding company, and it is also the person who has the deepest understanding of the product business process.

Freight personnel refer to the personnel entrusted by the owner to handle customs declaration, handover, warehousing, transfer, packaging, transshipment, leasing, booking, etc.
