I'd like to work in Marketing and employers look a lot at academic competitions and clubs are important too because you organize and market events all the time.

I do have skills but no way to prove I have them. I have to figure out something, a project or something to stand out a bit. A good way to prove you have the skills is if you worked somewhere in the industry. As someone in Marketing, I'm not really good at selling myself. I'm used to playing down my abilities instead of exaggerating, gotta get rid of that habit.

Thanks for your reply, I was really bummed out yesterday. I'm a bit more confident after a good's night sleep. I know I gotta do something now, to prove my skills.
