Personally I found the Qualified Marketers exam extremely valuable. I would highly recommend the QME and The Marketing Institute of Ireland to marketing graduates who are willing to pursue their careers further. You will find a broad range of information and events throughout the website which are extremely helpful in regards to skills development. Going forward, those who are considering sitting the QME in November or in the near future, my word of advice is; there is no wrong answer, no right answer, only a popular opinion. Try not to doubt yourself. Take it in stride and best of luck!
MMII Grad June 2021
I would highly highly highly recommend for any marketing graduates to sit the QME. It provides you with a competitive edge when applying for jobs and was one of the reasons why I was fortunate enough to be hired as Sales and Marketing Executive within a company only 6 weeks after receiving my degree. The benefits of becoming an MMII Grad has been endless.
