Abstract
Reports the results of a survey of 41 US third-party logistics (3PL) firm practices for hiring entry-level managers. Reveals the recruiting, selection, and compensation methods used for 96 different positions and related compensation data (e.g. mean starting salary = US$34,358). Recommends that 3PL firms use the information to benchmark current practices and offers specific ideas to improve recruiting effectiveness. Also proposes research results-driven job search strategies for individuals seeking positions with 3PL firms.
