On Monday, Mike Essex and I attended the Post Graduate Careers Fair at Southampton University to give a presentation to the students on ‘How to Get a Job in Online Marketing’.Following some great ideas from Dave Naylor, Rand Fishkin and Lee Odden we put together a slide show giving some ideas and pointers on how to get a job in the marketing industry, which went down really well with the students of the university.
After the presentation, we relocated to another part of the University and set up a stand so that the students could come and speak to us and ask any questions they had. We had lots of positive feedback on the presentation and the students took some ideas from us which should hopefully help them in their forthcoming job search quest.All in all a very good day and we are looking forward to attending similar events at other local universities over the next year.

Thanks for the feedback Lee, you helped us illustrate the point about Facebook and Twitter perfectly and this was probably the section which got the most nods in the audience. It’s surprising that many people who want a job in online marketing don’t market themselves online.
Lee, thank you for giving us your tip on ‘getting a job in online marketing’. The presentation was received well by the students at the university and I hope that we have helped them be proactive when looking for work.
I will be at SES London next week so look forward to meeting you there.
This is great advice. I wish more candidates here in the U.S. would be as proactive as the recommendations in this presentation. Well done and thanks for including my tip. See you guys at SES London next week?
