Day to Day
My day at work never looks like the day before. The life in my full service digital marketing agency can be demanding & exciting at the same time. I work with great clients from various industries & grow professionally every day. The scope of work & the type of services that we provide varies from a simple e-blast / social media post to a more complex SEO analysis or a website project for a small business or startup. The environment in our agency pushes everybody to go outside of the comfort zone.
Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for college students
It is important to have technical skills: Photoshop, SEO basics, HTML, etc. The more experience you can get from your school projects, volunteer opportunities, family business, the more marketable you are to potential employers. Take care of your online presence, so that you are not fired on your first work day for some silly tweet or Facebook post. You should treat your college time as your full-time job. It is not time for slacking off! Use your time wisely and learn as much as you can now.
