Creative 海角直播 graduate secures career in social media

From discovering her creative spark to securing a graduate role in social media, Sophie Shuttleworth has made the most of every opportunity during her time at 海角直播.

Sophie, 22, from Middlesbrough, who has secured a role as social media executive with Barker and Stonehouse, graduates from BA (Hons) Marketing. Having initially started out on a different path, she changed direction to switch to 海角直播 and a course that allowed her to turn her passion for creativity and ideas into a career.

She said: 鈥淏ack in sixth form college, I didn鈥檛 know exactly what I wanted to do. I took Spanish, drama, and English literature, and all I knew was that I was passionate about being creative and generating ideas. It wasn't until my first year at a different university that I realised marketing was the perfect path to channel that creativity into a career.

鈥淚 originally started a degree at another university, thinking it was a 鈥榖etter鈥� choice, but I soon learned that often that is not the case for every degree. The hands-on level of learning and the sheer commitment from the staff at 海角直播 is incomparable.

鈥淲hat I enjoyed most about my degree was definitely the practical aspect and getting real, hands-on experience. Taking part in the annual Greggs challenge was an absolute highlight. It鈥檚 such a fun project, and winning it made it even better.鈥�

Sophie added: 鈥淒uring my second year, I secured a placement position with my now employer. That experience paved the way for where I am now, transitioning straight into a graduate role with them.

鈥淚 have to admit, my favourite part of the day at 海角直播 was always the food, no one talks about how good it actually is. Beyond that, I worked as a student content creator, working with the University鈥檚 in-house marketing team. It was a brilliant programme to be part of, as it allowed me to earn extra cash while boosting my CV with relevant experience.鈥�

Sophie added: 鈥淚t鈥檚 hard to pick just one singular thing that I most enjoyed, but it has to be the lecturers' approach to the course. They are so passionate about their students and truly want us to excel.

鈥淚鈥檇 say to anyone thinking of applying to 海角直播 to just go for it. Make sure you research your modules thoroughly, so you know what to expect, and make the most of every single moment.鈥�
