How about making friends in international trade?
Ask yourself why you want to be a foreign trade salesman, and what is the motivation? This is the main reason, think more.

1. What abilities should I have during my college years? No matter what you do, communication skills are very important. If you are in a foreign trade company, you should communicate with customers, factories and freight forwarders. In the factory, you should communicate with your superiors, merchandisers and workers who carry goods. Careful is very important, especially when making foreign trade documents. One discrepancy is enough for you, especially LC.

2. What other certificates are needed? = = = = = Be sure to pass CET-4 or CET-6. If you can pass CET-8, try to pass CET-8. BEC intermediate is the best. You must be fluent in spoken English and have good listening skills, because you need it when you go to the exhibition, and there are not many opportunities to face the guests. We should also learn more business letters, because we mainly communicate with our guests through e-mail, and good e-mail gives people a professional feeling.

3. Do you need a computer secondary certificate? = = = = There is no mandatory requirement for computer secondary certificate. But office software must be understood. Word documents can do some explanations, and excel documents, such as packing lists, invoices, supplementary materials, etc. Do PPT and show your company structure, personnel, products and services to the guests.

These are the basic skills commonly used at ordinary times. But the most important thing in foreign trade is to understand an industry from a product. In the end, what you want to sell is the product. Knowing the product and customer market, we can know the customer's needs before we can sell the product. So you'd better choose a foreign trade industry for yourself first. Ask yourself what the reason is, because your major is related to this product, or the industry will develop better in the future, or you have resources to use, and so on.

It is best to go to a foreign trade company or a factory with self-export before formal employment. This will give you an overall understanding and help you find a job in the future.

After formal employment, it takes about three years to fully grasp the basic whole process and risks of foreign trade, which is considered as an introduction. So it's best to find a company with a development platform, such as those who are willing to take you to the exhibition, those who have B2B network platform, those who have someone to take you to study and those who have training. Otherwise, it's hard to get started by groping on your own. So don't focus on salary, it depends on whether the company is willing to train you. After you get the skills, many people want to win talents like you. Wages naturally rise. Don't work for money, work for yourself. After entering the business, communicate with people in the same industry more, so that you can learn faster. You can also make more friends and build your own contacts.

When you work upstairs, you will know that education is really a piece of paper representing the past. You can say this after you have a stable job, but you must get a certificate before you join the job, especially CET-6. Remember, you must hear well and have a basic understanding of foreign trade processes. Because enterprises recruit fresh graduates to see the potential, and these certificates and oral listening are your potential to enter this industry. I did a lot of somersaults at this point.
