A General Courier is responsible for picking up and delivering packages, documents, or other items between locations. Their duties often include sorting deliveries, planning routes, obtaining signatures, and ensuring items are delivered safely and on time. Couriers may work for delivery services, medical facilities, or corporate offices, and typically use cars, bikes, or on foot to complete their tasks. Attention to detail, time management, and good customer service skills are important for success in this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a general courier, and why are they important?
