Tell about job opportunities in the field of Logistics? - 21-May-2010
In the next 2 years logistics sector is all set to become 4 Lakh 62 thousand crore worth industry, an estimate says. In the next 4 to 5 year this industry is likely to provide fresh job opportunities to over 4 lakh persons. In the recent days this industry is experiencing a phenomenal growth. However, it is very difficult to get the needed skilled manpower for this segment.
Students do not show much interest towards taking up logistics courses like supply chain management and logistics management. This industry provides very less salary when compared to IT industry. As a result there is a great dearth in skilled professionals. But, presently middle level positions in divisions like finance, marketing and human resources are likely to get anything between Rs15 lakh to Rs 20 lakh as salary.
As this industry is not much popular among people it is a big challenge to get skilled personals. This industry until recent years was run either by an individual or an individual family. In the recent days only after the investment of several multi-national companies in this segment it has caught the attraction of students.
