Am I the only one thinking about this?

I am yet to begin with my degree in marketing. I still want to know. so i can make a better choice.

What can i do after school with marketing especially if i dont want to work within the country. I will like to work in Asia.

Can someone advise me?

please, I am actually asking for a friend. honestly, lol

Hi there

It's great to hear that you are thinking of pursuing a degree in marketing!

Students studying marketing are usually attracted to roles in marketing, advertising, public relations (PR), and sales. These industries are important throughout the globe, and hence I am sure that there would be opportunities for these roles in Asia.

I was interested in marketing, but decided to pursue a business management degree. This degree covered various sectors such as marketing, finance, economics, project management, and HR. I found this useful as it meant that I could explore a vast variety of sectors within the same degree. Perhaps this is something that you could consider if you think that marketing could be too niche?

Hope this helps.

Hi there,

I think that the most important thing to consider is, if this is the career that you want and what you want to study, how can you get experience? At university, I've studied international relations, and now I'm about to graduate and recently started a job as a marketing assistant and graphic designer based on my work outside of my degree! Sometimes having those skills and experience can help differentiate you from the competition (as well as give you the experience to know what kind of career direction you may want!).

I hope that helps!

All the best,
