 | I have a bachelor's degree in marketing (minor in statistics) and I want to become a market research analyst. I have been offered a position at Gallup to conduct phone interviews.
Should I take this position? Would phone interviewing experience make my resume stand out? Do you think I can leverage the position to become a full market research analyst? How can I leverage my position to advance my career?

| I have been working in Fund accounting in Ireland for a little over two years and desperately want to get out of it. I have a degree in Business Studies and a Masters in Economics. I find Fund Accounting boring and repititive and i really want a change. I'm not 100?ure what area in Finance i want to pursue - however i am sure that Fund Accounting is not for me and I have no desire to complete the ACCA exams either. The problem is when i apply for other jobs (such as Investment analyst, credit analyst, marketing research analyst etc ) I either get no response or get told that they want someone who already has experience in the area. I have looked a little into CFA exams and it seems like something i would like to do in the future. Some agencies have advised that i should start these exams myself and then i might have more chance of getting into these kind of roles - but i don't want to start these exams now as i would like to try out some of these roles first to help decide which one is for me ( i would hope to work for a company who would sponsor me instead) ! Any advice?

| I have a job offer in which I would be working 3 main functions, doing financial analysis, marketing database development and maintainence, and working on marketing and operations projects. I currently have an analyst title (marketing research analyst), and would rather have a title that indicates a promotion, as it is a pretty hefty salary increase. The company has indicated they are flexible with they title, which they have named Senior Business Analyst. (the senior part doesn't do it for me in terms of showing what I would like to) I don't know if they would go for an AVP title, but if they would, AVP of what? Marketing and Finance? They do not have an AVP in either role currently, though they have a number of AVP's in other areas. They might be more apt to choose something in between Sr. Analyst and AVP. But what would that be? The position reports to the EVP/CFO and is under the Finance area. This is the banking industry. Thanks in advance!

| I love the actual data gathering part of marketing research. I love doing surveys and using the data from those surveys to make charts & graphs. Most importantly, I HATE public speaking. I have 5 years of college under my belt and I feel as though my public speaking skills have gotten even worse. Even talking in front of small groups of say 3-5 people is hard for me.
My question is this: Are there any jobs in Marketing Research that don't require public speaking? Thanks a bunch.

I've also taken 3 semesters of statistics courses and studied abroad in France. Is this a strong college background to start to work in market research?

 | So I have a Chemistry major and math minor. I got a job offer as Market Research Assistant. It's temporary and rather low-paying but I'm sure it will be a valuable experience for me. Will having this experience for a few years help me set my foot in becoming a market search analyst? I'm interested in doing market research in pharm/biotech industries.

| I am starting my MBA from next fall semester and currently I am thinking of taking Market Research Analysis as my specialization. Since I am on F1 visa now, it is extremely important for me to get a job that will give me a good chance in getting H1B visa once I get the job. Do most of the companies that work of Market Research Analysis offer H1B sponsorships for their employees?

 | Recently I learned of an opportunity to join a GREAT company as a Marketing Analyst in charge of print advertising. I know first hand (someone close to me works there, and formerly held this role) that most of the applicants are recent college grads with little to no "real-life" job experience but have the degree. I on the other hand am still working on my degree but have TONS of work experience. I have held a number of types of jobs ranging from Apartment Manager to Accountant to (most recently) Sales as I have been in the work force for the last 13 years.
In each of the roles I've held, there has been elements of marketing - i.e. desktop publishing, market research and studys, competitor comparisons, etc. and of course in sales I've developed a number of skills as well.
The person hiring (I've already talked with him) is asking me to tailor my resume to highlight my skills from a marketing perspective...and I'm stuck. Can anyone offer any advice?
