Who's Hiring



What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in import analyst jobs.
- Bachelor's degree in supply chain, international business, or a related field
- Experience classifying goods under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
- Proficiency with customs entry software such as ACE or a licensed broker's TMS
- Knowledge of CBP regulations, incoterms, and import compliance requirements
- Licensed Customs Broker designation or active progress toward it
- Experience coordinating with freight forwarders, brokers, and government agencies
Tips for Your Import Analyst Job Search
Tailor your resume to HTS codes
Import analyst job postings often filter for candidates who list specific Harmonized Tariff Schedule experience. Name the HTS chapters you've worked with and any classification disputes you've resolved rather than describing customs work in general terms.
Highlight your customs broker relationship experience
Many hiring managers want analysts who can coordinate with third-party brokers, not just follow instructions. Describe situations where you caught a broker error, corrected an entry, or escalated a compliance issue to show you can operate independently.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists import analyst openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter openings by freight mode and region
Import analyst roles at ocean freight-heavy companies differ significantly from air freight or intermodal operations. When you search, note which incoterms and modes of transport each posting mentions so you apply to roles that match your actual day-to-day experience.
Prepare for a document audit exercise
Many import analyst interviews include a live review of a commercial invoice, packing list, or entry summary with intentional errors. Practice catching discrepancies between documents before your interview so you can walk through your reasoning out loud under time pressure.
Negotiate using duty-savings contributions
If you've identified first sale valuation opportunities, applied for binding rulings, or supported a free trade agreement qualification project, quantify the duty savings involved. Import teams respond better to cost-impact figures than to scope-of-responsibility descriptions when you make the case for a higher offer.
Import Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most import analysts?
Livingston International, STERIS, and Emerson are hiring the most import analysts right now, with openings concentrated in Illinois, California, and Wisconsin, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Retailers, automotive suppliers, and consumer electronics importers tend to maintain the largest ongoing import analyst headcounts.
How many import analyst jobs are remote?
About 67% of import analyst openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, though the share varies by function. Roles focused on tariff classification, compliance research, and trade data reporting tend to be the most remote-friendly, while positions requiring hands-on coordination with port teams or on-site warehouses are more likely to require in-person presence.
How do you become an import analyst?
Start by earning a degree in supply chain management, international business, or logistics, then build hands-on experience with customs documentation through an internship or entry-level trade compliance role. Learning to classify goods under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule and understanding CBP entry procedures are the two most practical skills to develop early. Pursuing a Licensed Customs Broker exam strengthens your candidacy significantly as you advance.
How do you get hired as an import analyst with little or no experience?
Target entry-level trade compliance coordinator or import specialist roles at freight forwarders and customs brokers, where you'll process real entries under supervision and build classification experience quickly. Demonstrating familiarity with ACE, incoterms, and the structure of commercial invoices in your resume shows hiring managers you've done the groundwork even without a full analyst title on your work history.
What does the import analyst interview process look like?
Most import analyst interview processes include a phone screen with HR, a technical interview with the trade compliance or logistics manager, and at least one practical exercise such as classifying a product or reviewing an entry summary for errors. Larger companies often add a final round with the director of customs or supply chain. Be ready to discuss specific CBP regulations, a compliance issue you've resolved, and how you stay current on tariff changes.
Where can I find and apply to import analyst jobs?
You can find and apply to import analyst jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience and location, then apply directly to each one that fits.
