Has anyone ever made the transition from sales to marketing? I’ve done Business development for over 3 years now and I’m super excited to make the transition as sales is not my passion. Just curious if any classes I can take or other steps I can take to be ready for a marketing role. Thank you!

know that media planning isn’t for me and I’m trying to transition to research, however I’ve been offered a position as a supervisor. Would you keep moving up the ranks? Or stay tight in my role?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I have a few former classmates and colleagues sweating over lateral interviews. Take a deep breath and relax.

First, doing these interviews does not define you as a person.

Second, take it one day at a time; if they are moving forward, they see something in you.

Third, remember that the people interviewing you are human beings. Connect with them, be personable.
