Topic: Career Day
Student: What made you decide to work in Marketing?
Marketing Representative: I have always been interested in Marketing. I have always been intrigued by different marketing techniques used to sell products, persuade customers to purchase new services, or even promote a politician for office. I have been in Marketing since I was a teenager. I guess you could say I started my career when I began selling ads for the school newspaper. When I attended college, I majored in English Literature and minored in Graphic Design. The rest, as they say, is history.
