Hi blogging world,
My name is Samantha and I am a fourth year student at San Francisco State University. I am majoring in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing. Picking a major was very difficult for me, and I went through a lot of trial and error to come to the path that I am on now.
All throughout high school, I never had a "favorite" subject. I figured that once I got to college I would figure out what I wanted to do in the future. Then when I started out at San Francisco State, I automatically decided that I would be a communications major, because it was such a broad subject field, and also the classes were not very technically challenging. Then, as my first year came to a close, I realized that I shouldn't go to college if I was not challenging myself and learning something that would help enrich my life outside of school. I then decided to be a business major. I thought that business was well rounded and would be able to give me more real life experiences.
Once I decided to go into business administration, I dabbled in accounting and marketing. Ultimately I decided on marketing because I am fascinated by studying consumers and what drives them to make their purchasing decisions. I also love the idea that marketing is in everything. Every product and service available all have marketing plans in place to help them succeed.
This is my final year in school and I am excited to graduate and go out into the real world to start a career in marketing. There are so many different positions available that I am willing to start any and gain experience to figure out where exactly I want to take as my career path. From there, I just plan on working my way up the corporate ladder!
