Demand for trade professionals has expanded with U.S.-China trade tensions, bringing better opportunities and salaries and on-campus recruiting
By Dave Sebastian Oct. 2, 2019 12:29 pm ET Escalating tariff battles are creating new opportunities for trade specialists.
“Right now, it’s platinum, it’s titanium,” Bill Conroy, the executive director of trade-compliance recruiting firm Tyler Search, said of the demand and pay for trade specialists. “If you’re a trade compliance professional with experience, everybody wants to get you on their dance card.” “We’ve been getting more resumes from junior people with no experience who are willing to come in and join the firm because trade is just a hot topic,” he said.
“I get calls from headhunters looking for trade-compliance managers or trade analysts almost every day,” he said. “There’s a market out there for people in this field, and there really aren’t enough.”
