Finding Work

How to decide whether a junior marketing assistant vacancy is worth applying for

Added to the archive on 15 November 2026.

Use a quick checklist to judge the requirements and working conditions.

Read the advert once for essentials, then again for the work itself. Write down the start date, location and any mandatory requirement. For work in campaign support, check whether you can manage campaign deadlines and approval handovers. If a detail is missing, make a note to clarify it.

Compare the work with your evidence

Look for responsibilities involving asset versions and deadlines. Write one line describing where you did something similar. If the employer lists a tool such as a campaign tracker, explain any equivalent you have used. Prioritise the roles where you can meet the essential requirements and give a clear example.
