Marketing jobs exposes one to so many things ranging from opportunities to insults,limited targets one has to meet and many more bad image from members of the public. Just like how I was asked to market paint for a paints company despite my degrees. It's not too good for ladies even though they attract customers cos it exposes them to assaults all in the name of meeting targets. |

The hidden truth is that about 98 percent of Nigerian employees are more concerned about what they can get from any organization instead of how they can help better such an organization. This is the simple reason the majority always wishes for the "assumed" hassle free positions - even when they lack the mental skill and good morality to such exalted roles. We too like to reap where we aren't ready to sow - no wonder predators in the guise of religious leaders and ponzi schemes lives large off us. 1 Like |

for the fact that most nigerians are looking for job does not mean that they should accept anything thrown at them. you work best when you are giving a job that you have passion for. Not every type of job is suitable for every individual.I have one simple question for you OP, do you think a marketing job will be suitable for an introvert? You quite know the answer. just passing by sha 5 Likes |

Marketing is quite challenging and only suitable for persons open to dynamic work environment. Most graduates on the other hand have the orientation of a stable work environment; resume work, sit on your desk and do your work for the day. Marketing doesn't start up with an encouraging stipend initially, most cases it's commission based tied to your target. But marketers tend to earn far better as experience increases and targets get easier to achieve as most new clients come from referrals. Marketers even climb up corporate ladder faster than others. But every graduate wants a job that starts with @least 250k from employment date. Even this hard times. And of course there's the fear and pressure of Sexual exposure that comes with the territory. No company will outrightly ask their staff to sleep with clients but they expect you to get the job done however necessary. Discretion is hence strongly advised. At the end of the day not every one has the stomach for Marketing but once you get a hang of it, it's interesting. And you have a contact base that can be very useful for you when/if you decide to start up your own business. ![]() 1 Like |

My heart goes out to those well dressed bank marketers at oshodi bus stop standing under the sun and handing out account forms to potential customers to fill. I am usually embarrassed on their behalf. And they usually have to spend the better part of their money to look 'sharp'. Even banks dont tell you sometimes that your job is marketing, till after employment. Sad but true. They know many will run. 1 Like |
