Good luck trying to get in there! Thats a pure marketing agency, specialises in research, you'll either like it or you wont....and its hard to get in because its one of the big ones in Perth that everyone wants to work for.

Also try 303 Marketing and Market Force.

Best thing to do is try to get into other companies that have marketing departments i.e. almost any big company.

Depends what sort of marketing you want to do. If you want to do market research, there are plenty of firms offering that service that you could try for work experience. Even get out there and apply for some of the part time research jobs i.e. become a surveyer, looks good on a resume when you try to get into marketing at a later stage.

Marketing communications is done by 303 and Market Force, as well as many other companies...and mainly includes advertising, PR and marketing campaigns.

With your Economics degree, I'd highly suggest strategic marketing, because it ties in perfectly with Econs. You find this sort of work in the big companies.
