Question 1 of 25

In which WMS systems are you best versed?

A warehouse management system, or WMS, is a software system that most warehouse focused organizations use. These systems help with the management of staff, daily organization, inventory control, materials movement, and more. Some of the more common warehouse management systems include:

- Oracle NetSuite
- IBM Sterling
- SAP EWM
- Zebra Warehouse
- Fishbowl Warehouse

Before your interview, it's a great idea to research which program they use. If you are not sure where to look, there's a good chance the system is mentioned in the preferred skills section of their job posting. If you do not have experience with their preferred systems, take the time to do some research online, watching tutorials on YouTube or looking at the software providers' website to learn its features.
