marketing major | why i chose it, internships, starting salary, etc

im a highschool senior whose been struggling with a career path for a while now and i can honestly say this major has no flaws! i love it

I’m a current freshman who was a Biology pre-med major but took a Marketing course in high school and made it my 2nd top major I’d switch to if I was uninterested in Bio. Well within like 5 weeks of the first semester I said “I’m switching” 😂 And since then I’ve been pushing soo hard. Did an apprenticeship for ~5 months with a skincare company in NYC, applied on LinkedIn and Indeed for similar actual internships (even though my uni doesn’t allow college credits until I’m a sophomore or junior :/) and heard back from 6! Currently doing 2 now, a clothing one and one with a pretty big cosmetics retailer. I also networked like crazy and may have some fall and spring internships already set up! Definitely so happy I switched🥺💕

Im a marketing major and this absolutely hit the nail on the head!

me: googles what its like to major in marketing Sophia: "communications is basically the same thing as marketing but its more writing and no math" me: changes my career plans

ugh girl as a double major in marketing and communications, this video was so accurate i literally was like OMG SO TRUE to my screen while watching. like i literally felt it so hard when you said you go to school but weren’t learning marketing even though you were interested. i am going through the same thing rn and have only really learned through the one internship i had where i was a brands intern for a tik tok agency and it was soo fun!

I'm in grade ten, and need to start considering careers, and i've always been interested in marketing, so this was very interesting to hear

As someone that is studying marketing and not entirely sure what they are learning, this was a huge encouragement. Thanks

I'm about to become a graduate of a business degree and when I had classes on marketing that's when I found my niche. Within business you can do pretty much anything but it becomes boring after awhile. Marketing is fun and creative! Adore marketing a lot.

I am so glad that I found this video. I am currently in college and I'm having that "hold up, what is it that I'm doing" moment, and you helped break it down. You changed my mind to stick with it :)

Thank you so much for making this video and sharing your experience! You've worked and interned for so many amazing companies and I was wondering if you were able to make a video diving more into that. For example how you got those placements, what you included in your resume/portfolio, how to stand out in interviews, networking etc. Thanks so much!

i was watching this because i’m planning on becoming a marketing major, and halfway through i realised we’re going to the same university! rutgers is huge man

Just applied to college with a major in Marketing! Cheers haha!

This is one of the most helpful marketing videos i have ever watched, thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏

I really needed this video! Everyone just viewed me as this creative fun person and therefore said that I should go into marketing, and though I consider myself to be a creative person, I really do value the research and number-crunching behind marketing. I am currently going to major in finance and minor in marketing, but I am really hoping to do more and more marketing in the future. Insightful video! Thx

Love how you gave so much info in only 13 minutes, it felt like a good 20 mins to me :) thank you

Great video! Marketing is such a deep topic

You explained this so well and with so much detail😩😭 thank you

Ahhh I feel you when you said you were confused about defining marketing. I’m a sophomore and I was really looking for a guide before actually declaring marketing management as my major. Thank you.

I'm a marketing major right now, graduating in the spring. I am so glad I came across this video. There are so many things that people don't know about it. It's just so interesting all the aspects of marketing. Thank you for this video!!

This was so incredibly helpful knowledge and perspective into the marketing world. Much appreciated!
