Student Profile

Selin

Selin works as a Trainee SEO Analyst at SEOMG!, a top SEO agency in Brighton.

What initially attracted you to pursue a Marketing MSc?

"Having worked in customer services and sales positions throughout my career I always found marketing fascinating and decided to do my master’s in marketing as a career path change."

In what ways has the course helped support your career goals and job search?

"We had guest speakers from the sector with years of experience coming to give us insights and share their hands-on experience. We also had career days where we got 1-on-1 help with our CV.

I was lucky that my lecturer Rodrigo shared this entry-level SEO trainee opening at SEOMG! An award-winning SEO company from Brighton with his students. He had heard about it from another former student who was working in that company. This happened in June right after I graduated.

I directly applied to the company, introduced myself and mentioned I heard about the job from my lecturer who taught their current employee, and it helped me get the interview."
