It is well known that in marketing, education doesn't fully prepare you for a marketing role.
As a marketing student I've always had a hard time explaining to my parents exactly what I'll do for work. I soon realised that I had no real clue what actual roles school was preparing me for.
Looking at the job market always painted me out to be some kind of imposter because I had none of the skills that were needed out there, it wasn't till I educated myself extensively on the field that I seen how school wasn't really to blame for my lack of competitiveness.
The truth is, marketing is broad. It's always changing. And recruiters will always go for people with proven skill and experience.
