Does anyone work here that could give some insight into this position/department or one like it? And is there anyone who has worked in marketing and shifted to communications/consulting…what are your thoughts on a career shift?

Job portals are useless in this market. Use them to simply found out who are hiring, then directly apply to those companies. Additionally, use LinkedIn to identify who the concerned manager/director is and reach out to them using Snovio or Hunter tools to push for a no-commitment conversation.
It’s tedious but better than endless applications on Glassdoor, LinkedIn “easy apply” and Indeed. These get you nowhere.
I would say to have a profile on any and all job boards you want with your profile available for all to contact you, apply for jobs on the job boards and company websites, network, try your local Career Force / Work Force Center, and apply, apply apply.
I use Indeed, Glassdoor, and ZipRecruiter, CareerBuilder / Monster, and a local board (MinnesotaWorks.net). I just started using ZipRecruiter and maybe a day or so later got a response and an interview request.
It is pretty easy to notice the scam emails from the others.
If you know how to spot a Scam or phishing email you will notice the same things. Just go with your gut. Think of how you would compose an email if you were a recruiter.
I would really be leery of a headhunter as they could just be suggesting and submitting you for jobs which are posted on the free job boards that you can do yourself plus most employment agencies will just have temporary, contract, or contact / temporary to hire roles.
Right now the job market and economy are bad so you have recruiters getting tons of applications plus just in the last 5 years I have noticed a decline in the work ethic. There is lots of ghosting going on with recruiters as well. I was shocked to find out that some candidates are even ghosting employers.
You might want to check out some of the recruiters YouTube videos to be able to get tips and tricks on the job search and interviewing.
I could refer you to the offer that my company is offering now and it’s all going as planned, how about you text me or inbox me privately via (786) 902-2003 for more details about the job position. Thank you!
