Marketing is a growing and rapidly changing industry. Employment site [Monster.com](http://www.monster.com/marketing-careers) predicts that the number of marketing jobs in the country will increase by 12 percent by 2022.

Anyone who has been in the industry for a while also knows that the expectations of employers now go far beyond a marketing degree. They want nimble individuals who are ready to tackle everything from data analysis to copywriting to social media strategy and quick turn-around graphic design.

That’s a lot of present in a resume.

Here is how [StandOut CV](http://standout-cv.com/pages/how-to-write-a-cv) suggests you create a resume that will stand out in the crowd.

Of course, landing the job is just the first step. If you want to solidify your place in a new marketing role, you need to hit the ground running.

Be prepared on your first day with the agenda outlined in [Your First 100 Days In A New Marketing Job](https://www.jonespr.net/blog/402746/edit-beta/www.jonespr.net/your-first-100-days).
