Creativity is highly essential in every aspects of life, especially when competition is surrounding all around. Apart from this, any professional degree would be manageable for Advertising. You also need to know some skills in media and entertainment and technical aspects to help you out with more professional quality work.
Advertising is mainly done to promote the products or services or the company itself.
So, as long as the companies exist, you can be sure that advertising job exists. There are numerous ad agencies which are in demand for this type of job.
I always had a feeling that advertising jobs are somewhat similar to marketing jobs.
You are doing something creative to market your products, that means you are preparing to market.
You can work in either of the ways , either offshore of on site. Offshore job is sitting at your own office doing table work, paper work etc.
While on site job is going to your client's place, understanding their requirements and needs and then executing the project.
I find on site job is the challenging and more interesting one. Well, it may depend on individual's perspective.
We also have the content manager who is solely responsible for the content generation for your advertisements. They design banners, pictures ,videos or movies for advertisements.
You can choose variety of media where you want to advertise starting from small magazines,newspapers to internet.
Costing is also important. The account department takes care of it, how and how much to charge for their advertising.
