marketing major - yay or nay? (1 Viewer)

[Chris.]

ive decided to change my 2nd major again and this time to marketing. I reckon finance will be too hard because i suck at maths, so im taking up marketing this semester.
Im sure it'll be interesting, but what are the job prospects like?

there are plenty of marketing jobs out there. most are fairly dead end unless you start building your way up too some really corporate marketing, (remember its who you know not what you know), so it could mean you working for some shitkickers gets you connections to lets say, woolworths marketing.. something like that youd be on fire

the advantage of finance is that if you go well and/or get honours, companys come to you and offer a job. im not sure if the same is done with marketing. gl
