On-line Marketing???

    Hi all, been appyling for a good few jobs but like many haven't been having much luck so I'm thinking about heading back into education and maybe upskilling and get the brain working again as it's starting to feel a bit activity deprived


    I would most like to enter into a course which will specifically train me towards a job role. I have a general business degree and a postgrad in PR (which is an area I dont want to be in), so I'm looking for something that will set me up well for the future.

    I have an interest in Marketing and I enjoy the internet and I'm wondering has anyone had any experience of any on-line marketing courses out there? would it be a good avenue to go down? whats the work actually like? can someone suggest any good course (based in Dublin)? any advice from someone in this area?

    I'd really appreciate any feedback or suggestions
    Thanks

    Not trying to sound smart but if you;ve got some free time would you consider working for Free to get experience?

    I would definitely consider it if I had the free time, i'm working practically full-time at the moment, in a sales role, it's not where I want to be but doing it to get by (lucky to even have I suppose)

    I am looking to do a course part-time over the next year

    I have just come back from talking with the DCU digital marketing chair at their info session in town and it's looks like a very interesting prospect

    Hi, firstly fair play to you! I think the degree you are thinking about doing has a lot of potential.

    I've recently started an online retail company and the marketing is much more complex than I initially thought and I certainly feel that it would be worthwhile paying an expert (am doing so at the moment). Hopefully others will also think you could go far with that qualification

    Best of luck and I hope it works out for you. Would be worthwhile trying to get some esxperience while studying so that you are credible when you graduate.

    Ive heard its a fantastic course and would love to do it but dont have the cash at the mo but have heard lots of grea things about it.

    I actually know a chap who got a job in an online marketing firm on he back of it..
