I am a junior majoring in international trade. I would like to ask, what preparations do you need to make to join a foreign trade company? What aspects do employers value?

Generally speaking, salesmen should master the necessary knowledge of foreign trade process, correspondence and telecommunications, and have enough English level. Then as novices, they must fully learn the knowledge of industry products, that is, the products that your company mainly deals in, which is the most important thing!

Generally speaking, foreign trade salesman is a challenging job and will encounter considerable work pressure in the future. He must make enough psychological preparations in the early stage, including the process of learning the basic knowledge of products, which will be quite hard.

The key to being a foreign trade salesman is not how good English is and how well you learn process theory, but that you are willing to endure hardships, learn, be familiar with the knowledge in the industry, be careful and comprehensive, have a strong sense of responsibility and be able to withstand pressure. To put it simply, you should pay more attention to personal work quality and comprehensive professional quality.

Therefore, the lack of work experience of recent graduates is the biggest disadvantage. During the interview, you should show your personal quality and willingness to study hard, so that the unit can see the prospect of training you (of course, the necessary foreign trade knowledge, English and other skills are also essential). This is the key to show your uniqueness in the interview. I also value this when recruiting new people. I quite agree with my friends upstairs. Attitude is everything.
