The first job after I graduated was a purchasing assistant in an Internet and advertising company. It was different from the traditional purchasing.As we all know,if the company needs to purchasing some important things related to their new products ,the first step is to look for many suppliers.And choose one of them by negotiation,comparing with their price,products’ quality and so on.
The work in my job is much easier.I was the person who linked the salesmen,suppliers and finance.While the real estate agency cooperated with our company,we needed to held some activities to help them sell houses. Firstly, the salesman provided a list to me shown the activity need to use.Secondly,I contacted with suppliers to buy the things or let them to make materiel such as leaflets,posters and so on which were all listed.Most of these activities were similar and the things they needed were almost the same.So I didn’t need to look for another supplier.The last step on the work was to use the system of our company to pay the money to supplies.
