Why did you choose a
job/career in this field? I
did my B.Com at McGill with a major in Marketing and after a brief stint in the
non-profit world, I decided corporate was where I wanted to be. I started off
doing a lot of market research and new product development and then the
opportunity came to take over all responsibilities of the VP Advertising who
was retiring. Since then I’ve been managing all advertising and PR
projects for the company. How did you decide on
your job/Career? I’m
still not 100% decided, but for right now I am happy and learning new things
every day. And to me that’s what is important right now. I really enjoy
the advertising aspects of my job, and the brand management is important too. I
feel as though I am getting the best of both worlds because I really get to
dabble in everything. How did you find your
job/Career? I
found my career through an employment counselor in What suggestions could
you give to those out there who would like to work for the same company or are
looking to make a similar career move? Working
in consumer electronics may not seem glamorous, but there’s a lot of room
to learn and grow. Any other suggestions? Be
Persistent! and
don't give up. |
