The Beginning

Welcome to my new blog! There is a little background needed to really understand my motivation behind this new venture. I'm graduating in December with a degree in Marketing. With this in mind, I have begun the arduous, but exciting, process of finding a job. I see this as more than just searching the classifieds and making phone calls, however. I want to find a company and a position that I feel is right for me. I need to find a place that meets my goals and objectives but is a place where my employer will be satisfied with me as well. I feel that in these last months of my education I need to further my marketing knowledge and take it out of the school setting. I need to learn from the market and apply my education to what is going on in the world. That is the point of this blog. I am constantly seeing interesting things online, in the media, and in my everyday life that I can apply to marketing. I am going to use this blog as a platform to voice my thoughts on what I am seeing, as well as my process of finding a place for myself in the marketing world. I would love to hear your thoughts on all that I'm doing, so please, interject your thoughts as well. Now, off to my Field Experience homework.
