Does anyone have any advice on how to get experience in marketing automation without already having experience? I’m trying to make a career shift there, had dozens of interviews, 2nd interviews, 3rd, even 4th interviews. In the end, the feedback I get is they want more experience. I have a masters degree in communication and some email campaign building in SFMC (work won’t pay for the automation tools tho). Is there an org that would like a volunteer in this area? Or a true entry level job?

Get Hubspot certified. Look on Taproot for volunteer project opportunities.

Also the volunteer/side experience is a solid one - that's the only way to build that up really. The masters is helpful but there is a limited substitute for experience itself though

You can shortlist the firm's and then intern at them if you are still in college. Else, set up a Shopify page and use tools similar for automation marketing to get some hands on experience.

Thanks everyone! I did begin the Hubspot training and was enjoying it, but I wasn’t sure how impactful it would be on my prospects and drifted away from it. All of your advice lets me know to buckle down and focus back in. Yesterday was a rough day with another rejection that hit particularly hard, but now I have a better vision of a path ahead. I really appreciate the advice and encouragement!

Hello Fishes,

I had given interview
Mindtree and cleared both technical rounds. On Tuesday 29 March 2022, I got a call from HR for the final discussion. After that I have not received any response.

I have been calling the HR and her manager, both are not responding to mail or calls.

Is there a way to get some information if my candidature is still in progress or is this delay natural? I have another offer from another company, but am more interested in joining Mindtree.
