    This is a very broad subject, as there are many different positions in marketing. I would start by reading the wikipedia listing of areas of marketing specialization at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marketing#Areas_of_marketing_specialization . There are jobs that specialize in each of these areas.

    Then also consider that a degree in marketing could be useful for just about any area of business, not just in marketing. So the jobs available is even larger than just those in marketing.

    International is always good, as the business world has become much more global. So that is a useful area to have specialized in.

    Another route is to consider the classes you have taken and see if there are any certain areas that you found interesting. Then start exploring what positions there are that do that type of stuff.

    The important thing is to get the degree. From there, the sky is the limit based on your hard work, perseverance and committment to continual self improvement.
