    Honestly I just found your channel like two hours ago and you’ve given me so much optimism and validation in a marketing career. I’m still a high school student in the US but I am about to graduate soon and I’m very confused about “what I am going to do” for my future. Very therapeutic vid lmao

    I’m a marketing student and next year I’ll be doing my last year, I want to move to London and I was so stressed as to how I could gain experience being fresh from uni, Thank you so so so much this video means a lot to me, and I’m happy it’s coming from a marketing manager because that’s what I want to be❤️🥺❤️

    I love this, Angel. Everything was just practical, very well explained, and I got super super excited about persuing a career in Marketing! But feel slightly confused like what I need exactly to start. So I got interested what degree do you have to do this?

  • @StrawberryJamJam29
    @StrawberryJamJam29 2 роки тому +2

    I learn so much from you! I’m definitely trying out Acadium. This is EXACTLY what I needed. I’ve been trying to break into tech from nonprofit after getting my nonprofit job offer rescinded.
    But tech companies always tell me I don’t have the skills because I have never worked in their industry. I have 4 years of marketing experience in higher education, nonprofit and my own blog. Tech companies are very specific with what skills they want. I hope I can finally transition with Acadium.

    • @angelzheng

    Hi Angel! Love your vlogs. Got to know about Acadium from you and I am completing my first apprenticeship.
    But I realised that I am not getting jobs even though I have certifications and a little bit of experience. Usual response is that my education background doesn’t align. I am looking for jobs in Canada from India, if you could give some insights, that will be really helpful. Thanks

    • @angelzheng
      @angelzheng  2 роки тому +1

      More experience is going to be what helps you land jobs! It’s a bit more difficult for you as you’re applying for jobs overseas. They will typically prioritize people who are from Canada. When hiring overseas, I find that companies will look for more experience to show that you are very competent for the job they’re hiring for.
      I would freelance more or try to find a related job in your home country first. That way you have something on your resume to show that you’re able to do the job required when you apply elsewhere (:

    Hi! I’m venturing between nursing and careers in business. My mom thinks that getting a job in nursing is a bit easier after college, which is what she wants me to do. I also like the business career area, and I asked her opinion on it and she didn’t really give me one. She just said find a career that can get you a job after college. And idk what to do😭😭(btw I’m a HS student)

    • @angelzheng
      @angelzheng  2 роки тому

      Honestly business careers is pretty broad so I’d look more into what you’d like to do and what you’re interested in!

    • @lotoyadavis
      @lotoyadavis Рік тому

      i did both. Nursing is good but I love business. my suggestion would be to research on both & see which aligns best with your life goals

    Do I necessarily need a degree in marketing before o can venture into digital marketing?
    I have a degree in computer science and i am interested in digital marketing I have taken some online courses on digital marketing .

    • @angelzheng
      @angelzheng  Рік тому

      Nope! I don't think so! I think if you have transferrable skills you could totally go into digital marketing. Would be good to maybe do some freelancing work/internships so you have work experience though!! Those things are more important I think when you're starting a new job.
      Something like Acadium could help you with starting a job in digital marketing without going through school (I talk about it in this video ua-cam.com/video/GrNZChWal8M/v-deo.html)

      Hi, I’m actually interested in both digital marketing and web development, so I’m struggling to decide between a marketing or computer science/CIS degree. How has you job search been going in either your degree or with marketing?
