Have you noticed how silly advertising gives a brand a personality? Today on The NXT Voice, Chartered Marketer Connor Conroy, CM Senior Marketing Consultantat Bell Canada, playfully discusses how brands have taken the seriousness out of marketing and appealed to the audience with humour. That's what's NXT.
One piece of advice that stuck with me was to stop waiting until I felt 'fully ready' before taking opportunities. A lot of growth comes from putting yourself in environments that challenge you, even if you're still learning. I've learned that experience builds confidence.
While scouring social media sites, job postings and your favourite companies searching for opportunities to get your foot in the door, you kept seeing one constant – required experience. That's something you just don't have. You're trying but you can't seem to get your foot in the door. Either you get no response or the response is that they've decided not to move forward with your application. That sucks.
