Vision

As a senior in college graduating in May I am forced now more than ever to think about my future. It is important to have a vision and see yourself somewhere before actually entering the "real" world. My past 4 years at the University of New Hampshire have been some of the best of my life...but it's time to move on to bigger and better things (and I truly believe that).

My vision for the future is constantly changing. I'm a marketing major and am very happy in that field. Where I want to go with that degree specifically is unclear. I find all my marketing classes to be very interesting and am excited to put everything I've learned to use. Right now I see myself working for an ad agency. Working with a team to put together marketing strategies and campaigns for clients. I could also envision myself working within a larger company's marketing department.

Like I said earlier it's great to have a vision but just graduating college may not lead exactly where you want to go. I'm willing to start out small and work my way up to where I want to be. This way I would also be able to really appreciate what I do. And who knows, one day a dream job could presnt itself, and this way I'll be ready for it.

  1. You are already successful in your own right. You are carrying a full course load plus doing volunteer work and other community-related activates, that’s impressive.

    The best way to find a job is to connect with people in the industry or company that you’re interested in working for. Find out what advice they have for you. Also, meet people through industry associations and volunteer on a relevant committee.

    You’re leveraging social media and you get marketing. Way to go!

    This is a great start. Keep doing a fantastic job and you’ll find yourself with a great company full-time before you know it.
