From small private enterprises to listed companies, in fact, purchasing this position is not professional. Anyone can speak and behave well. Smaller companies are called at best "orderers" or "merchandisers". Only large companies in the upstream of the industry will have the energy and ability to integrate the supply chain. You should know Karajak matrix, 10C, balanced scorecard, eight elements, 6S and so on. After learning CIPS, there are not many opportunities for actual procurement.

In fact, the real advantage of purchasing lies in experience and supplier resources, which takes time to accumulate. On the one hand, the state cancels the certificate of procurement engineer in order to lower the entry threshold.

No enterprise will recruit a person without any practical work experience to be a procurement engineer (or procurement expert).

Also, it's easier to get into the business than to bank. Although anyone can do purchasing jobs, the standards and rules of each industry are different, and you can cross banks, and your supplier resources are not omnipotent.

Not only purchasing knowledge, but also sales skills, financial skills, statistical knowledge, laws and regulations, industry knowledge and rules, and sometimes stock futures knowledge (involving foreign exchange, petroleum and non-ferrous metals, etc. ).

There are not many opportunities, but the choice is personal.

In my humble opinion, I have taken too many detours for reference only. Supply chain management is the only way for the company to "save resources and get through the process" and has great potential. Let's go
