Dogukan Pasha, marketing manager trainee at L’Oréal, talks about coming to the end of his marketing graduate scheme and explains why a passion for beauty products isn’t enough on its own to secure a top job at L’Oréal.

Understanding the difference between marketing, advertising and PR is a must if you’re thinking of a graduate career in this sector.

Marketing is one of the most popular graduate jobs you’ll come across. For this reason, you'll need to impress graduate recruiters. If you’ve got a good mix of soft skills, academic ability and determination, you are well on the way to securing a marketing graduate job.

From being a motivated team worker to presenting yourself or an idea to a target group, assessment centres are your chance to show graduate recruiters you can operate in a marketing environment.

Retail merchandisers work closely with company buyers to maximise profitability by predicting and monitoring sales trends and accurately controlling stock levels.
