Exactly waht the title says. Is anyone in marketing for their jobs, and how is it. Is it hard or what I dont know what it is.

i'm a marketing major, and i can tell you that doing a marketing analysis sucks. I believe i just landed a job with southern farm, but plan in the future to be an agent.

what all do you want to know? i can tell you pretty much anything that is envolved in it.

hmmmm, i guess it depends on what you want to do. Aparently you'll be selling kitchen products. Like knifes and such. If you think you'll be interested in it go to the interview and see what they say.

How old are you, and would this be your first job?

if nothing else, it'll help you in future job interviews.

Vector is Cutco knives. You go to a bunch of meetings and they eventually tell you that you have to buy a $150 set of knives if you want to work there. Then, if you go ahead with it, you sell knives door to door all summer.

You literally sell knives door to door, just toss it out.

Saying you in marketing is like saying you are in finance. Its a very loose term. Marketing can be everything from sales to actual advertising and market research/analysis. Normally marketing jobs that are offered to anyone without a specific degree or training is a commisioned based sales job.
