Introducing My Job
I am working as a shipping specialist for a trading company. Our company is a group of companies managing the exporting and supply chain. There are five members in our shipping department, everyone work independently of each other. We are in charge of different customers. Therefore, our department has the strict shipping rules and shipping regulations. These are made to avoid conflicts between the customer and our company. I need arrange the shipment to meet the customer’s requirements, such as freight cost check, issue the letter of credit, the shipping arrangement of the whole shipment and so on. Also, it is important to provide client with excellent service that we need inform the full shipping schedule to them when vessel sailed. Because our clients must know all the schedules so that they would know when they could receive the cargoes. Most of the time, I need to work overtime. Still, I like my job because I have learned much knowledge of international trade from the job content. For the future, I will do my best whatever the difficulties may be.
