20 Year Old College Student Has No Idea What To Do

Posted by Anonymous on 8/13/2008 at 4:45 PM ET 250 Points
I am a 20 year old college student at Texas Tech University. I am currently pursing a degree in Marketing after I took a couple Marketing classes and fell in love with the concepts of Marketing and Business. But the thing is, I have no idea what I can do with my degree. What are the entry level positions for a Bachelor's in Marketing? What are the salary ranges? How about the job outlook for a Marketing Degree? All I know is that I love Marketing and would love to do something involving Marketing.

If anyone has any advice that would be great and a huge help in giving me assurance that I am doing the right thing. Thank you for your help

    I think the best place to look would be the posted marketing jobs on this website...i'm sure they are not all senior positions...

    Frank,

    I suspect you already know this, but landing an internship is extremely helpful. Both for the experience and the connections you'll make. Hell, if you've got the stamina and time, try 2 or 3 in varying industries. You'll gain valuable perspectives by working both the client side and within an agency.

    A marketing degree can take you down alot avenues. Sample as many paths as you can before graduation, and that will increase the likelihood of finding a career you're truly passionate about.

    Best wishes,
