Where do you work and what is your job title?<\/b><\/p>\n

I work at Stitch Fix as the Growth Marketing Associate, Paid Social.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does your job entail?<\/b><\/p>\n

As a part of the Growth & Media team at Stitch Fix, I am responsible for media <\/span>buying and campaign management primarily on Facebook and Instagram. I <\/span>own the execution and strategy around our experiments that help us <\/span>determine scalable drivers of business impact based on causality. In order to <\/span>do so, I partner closely with our in-house creative team, data-science team, <\/span>and other members of the growth team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you secure this position while enrolled at Chapman?<\/b><\/p>\n

Yes.<\/span><\/p>\n

What advice do you have for undergraduate students or recent graduates?<\/b><\/p>\n

Get experience in whatever field as early as possible! I had my first ever internship in marketing during my freshman year and by my sophomore year, I was offered a Junior Analyst position. My career would not be the same if I hadn’t started early and I don’t have any regrets! I worked really hard managing a full class load (senior year was 21 credits), a full-time job, a side gig, and a social life, but it was all worth it.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
