Alumni Experiences

hello, my name is Janet Huerta, and during my time in marketing club, I had several positions such as vice president, website designer, and social media manager. being in marketing club was such a fun experience. I met a lot of new people and enrich my college experience. it also gave me a lot of professional experience as I was able to use the skills I learned in marketing club and applied them to real jobs as well as give me opportunities because of the club. The responsibility of having directorial positions what’s one of the best decisions I made, and I cherish the experiences and the memories I made in marketing club!

During my tenure as a mentee and later as the Director of Events in the Marketing Club, I honed a diverse set of skills that have proven invaluable in my professional journey. As a mentee, I learned the intricacies of strategic marketing planning. This involved analyzing market trends, conducting competitor research, and developing comprehensive marketing strategies tailored to specific campaigns. Collaborating with seasoned mentors, I gained a deep understanding of consumer behavior and the importance of data-driven decision-making in marketing. These experiences allowed me to refine my critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, ensuring that I can approach marketing challenges with a well-thought-out plan. Stepping into the role of Director of Events within the Marketing Club, I further expanded my skill set by becoming the primary orchestrator of our club's activities. From planning workshops and seminars to organizing promotional events, I was responsible for every aspect of event management. This role required meticulous scheduling, attention to detail, and excellent communication skills. Additionally, I took charge of crafting and disseminating our weekly newsletters, which demanded not only strong writing skills but also an ability to engage and inform our club members effectively. This experience greatly improved my project management abilities and enhanced my capacity to work under pressure, ensuring that I can successfully execute marketing campaigns and events in any professional setting. Overall this was a great experience as a Marketing student that allowed me to make many connections that will help me in the future

Hi, my name is Roxana Hernandez-Perez. I am the former Treasurer for the CSULA marketing club. My favorite thing about this club was obtaining an insight about specific careers I want to pursue. I was also able to network with some of the guest speakers. This club gives many opportunities to students while making new friends. I am now a 4th year here and can confidently say this is one of the best clubs on campus

My name is Alexis Padilla and I was the Director of Social Media for the 2022-2023 school year. My experience with the Marketing club was super fun! I was so happy to be apart of an organization whose goal wasn’t just to involve marketing students but to show any student of any major how useful marketing can be to their own career. Being the director of social media also gave me first hand experience in the position I want to go into, managing an account and being able to be creative in the things I post. I learned so much not just from the guest speakers we had and the activities we did but from the people who were also apart of the club. I am so grateful I am able to call myself a marketing club alumni!
