TimesPro’s PGCMM: A One-Of-A-Kind Training Programme With A Pre-Enrolment Job Offer

The increasing use of smartphones and internet penetration among its population has led to India being the fastest-growing market for internet advertising.[1] India has always had a vast media and entertainment sector, but its contours are changing owing to a rise in 4G internet connections and India’s huge chunk of young population.[2] Digital media channels are overtaking television and print media. As a result, digital marketing has emerged as a necessity for businesses to maintain their brand presence. Such a paradigm shift has led to a high demand for professionals trained in new-age media and marketing skills. Since contemporary media and marketing requires advanced skills and knowledge across diverse domains, the existing talent pool finds itself under-skilled to fulfil managerial roles in today’s media and marketing domains. The ensuing skills gap presents promising career opportunities and job growth for upskilled professionals. Most professionals, however, lack the technical expertise and the managerial competencies required for these roles. Securing a well-paying job in the media and marketing domain is even harder for freshers with no experience, who often have to settle for low wages.
