An opportunity offered to me at Coventry University is the option to take a year out and complete a placement year.

Placement years are wonderful opportunities to understand how an industry works. I can learn what responsibilities I would have and I can gain the skills I need to succeed in the industry.

Below I have listed the different placements I have applied for and why.

Warner Bros: TV Franchise Marketing Placement, Film Marketing Placement (European Theatrical) and Digital Marketing Placement

Nike: Marketing & Brand

Adidas: Marketing Operations

• Unfortunately I was unsuccessful with my Adidas application. I am aware it is very tough to get a placement with them, as I did go to their presentation talk at the Birmingham National Exhibition. I also didn’t receive any feedback on my application, so I can only hope that applications I submitted to other companies are more well received.

Disney: Marketing Placement

3M: Digital Marketing

I also plan to apply for marketing positions with the following companies:

IPSOS Connect – Market Research

QA Apprenticeships – Group Marketing Co-Ordinator

Born Music – Content and Marketing

Panasonic – Product Marketing Assistant
