Everyone is asking whether they need a degree or not to have a career in X profession. And I noticed the question used to be WHAT should I study to nowadays being: IF I should study. Major shift.

In this video, I'll share a bit more about my academic background and path so that you can get a closer look and idea about what a degree means for a marketing career. But more importantly, I share some important thoughts on the relationship between education and career and things for you to take away on this topic.

Hope you find it helpful!

I don’t have a marketing degree (or any degree!) and I work on the marketing team for the company I work at. I used to work in retail and I volunteered to help post on that job’s social media pages and included that on my resumés. I also took various marketing courses online for free just to have the vocabulary to talk about the field. When I got my current job it was for a different position but when they were looking for people to join their marketing team they recalled I included social media work and google certifications on my resumé and invited me to participate in their marketing team. I am now able to say I work in marketing and I never even went to college, I’ve simply acquired the experience.

I don't have a degree in marketing, but in 3 months i went to some kind of crash course where we made blogs and wrote content, did fb ads, google ads, analytics, SEO etc.

I leaned a LOT of things but no one in my country is looking for a Junior Marketer 😑🤦‍♂️ everybody wants a 2+ years experience 😪
I haven't touched my blog for a month because i was demotivated for my unsuccessful job search.

Only thing left for me, and all of your audience who are beginners and job searchers is to practice, practice and again practice.
Good luck guys. 👍🏻😁

Yea I didn't have a degree when I got my first marketing job. I just worked my way from front desk, to Account Executive, and then to Digital Marketing Coordinator. After that I completed my associates degree in computer information systems and then got hired on with another company as a Digital Marketing Manager. I was considering going back to complete a bachelors in general studies or marketing just so I can secure future pay scale...in case my experience isn't enough lol

Hi Elif! Thank you for creating this video. I came across your channel because I want to go back to school for Management and Marketing. I'm making a career change and this will be a fresh start. Do you have any suggestions on how I can market myself to a postgrad program when I have little to no relevant experience in Marketing. I'm eager to learn and I know I can. Any advice would be great. Thanks! Keep up with the videos, they're helpful!
