Tips for landing a marketing leadership and/or generalist role? My experience is as a strategist. I pull together a big picture plan and work with specialists to execute. Unfortunately, most job postings I come across are looking for someone with extensive lists of technical skills that can strategize and work in multiple martech tools to execute. Are pure strategy roles disappearing?

Would try to get as much internal agency ecpsire to the tech landscape as possible. Not just for a client side leadership role but also to help you move up the ladder past director at an agency.

I’m in a corporate role. Would love to move to agency. I am familiar with the tech and the optimization options within the strategy scope, but I’m not a power user or even a daily user of most programs. At the end of the day, I feel that having a grasp on strategy, any platform can be learned, but it seems that’s hard to get across at the application stage. Unfortunately, there is not opportunity to gain more hands on technical experience in my role. I’ve considered freelancing to gain more experience where my full time role does not allow. That may be my best option.

Do recruiters actually look at your education and early work life when you've reached a certain level of experience in the industry?

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side. Specialist roles aside, such as digital, when you see someone describing themselves as a “generalist marketer” is this a resume you’d pass on? My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you

I saw this recruiter make a post on LinkedIn, and I liked working with them the first time, and I want to reach out. But I don’t know what they’ll think.
