I know as a nigerian graduate i have had some nasty experiences with marketing jobs in the past and for a few i dont even pray my enemy falls for them sef and for some reasons i feel the 'working conditions' set isn't just fair for a graduate especially if you are told to go open "accounts " or look for some ridiculous amount of money within a 'stipulated time' and the worst part is being offered peanuts as salary under this wild weather.
Basically the bulk of job vacancies nowadays are marketing jobs and severally they have modified the names to make it interesting like DSA,Sales Executive etc and most times when you read the job description there's this discouragement,sad face or anger that itsa marketing job again

So i just want us to share our Opinions,Reasons Why you also dislike Marketing Jobs or if you have Experiences that you might have gone through whether good or bad,pls share with others

If you feel you have some suggestions that you feel our "Oga's at the Top" should do to make Marketing jobs interesting & flexible for Nigerian Graduates,please share.

i dislike marketing job because even those that studied marketing are running away from the job

Most people in marketing- about 85%- have run out of options. As for the rest, about 10%- they're in it to play the numbers game and make good money. About 5% actually LOVE it.
Extrovert swine...
The irony is this-
NO BUSINESS can survive AND grow without marketing (which includes adverts, mind you).
So they spend big. BIG.
One company spent $14 billion- IN A YEAR!
On marketing?!
Go ask google.
Sigh.
Imagine how many marketers became millionaires...
To get it, you have to do it.
Simples.
