Did you know?
If you have a career within Digital Marketing and or if you have attained a couple of years of marketing experience, you don’t necessarily have to live the corporate “9am - 5pm” work life.

With Digital Marketing, no matter what you specialise in, there are plenty of various working options. For instance, you could become Head of the Marketing Department at a spontaneous brand. Or you could be a part of an agency, or join a start-up company. Or if working remotely and making up your own work hours is more of your thing, then you could potentially get into doing Freelancing/Contracting work.

Additionally, if you’re more entrepreneurial, you could even drift off and become a Marketing Consultant for various businesses. Or even start your own Digital Marketing agency just like Anastasia, an NZIE Graduate did!
