Course: How to Search for and Find Your First Job in Marketing

  If you’re in your final year or have just graduated and want to find your first job in Marketing and Sales in the age of AI, this free course is for you, titled How to Search for and Find Your First Job in Marketing.
Hello, I am Dr. Carlos Valdez, Founder and Director of mercadotecniayventas.com.
For this course I gathered what companies are asking for today—from roles and skills to personal branding and applied AI—so you arrive prepared, confident, and with a competitive edge. This is not loose theory: these are practical tactics ready to implement this week. This content is the result of researching and writing every week since 2024 on the topic. It is the selection of our best blog posts on how to do marketing and sales with AI.

AI is here to stay and is already transforming the profession. That’s why I designed this course to help you face today’s job-market reality. Companies are hiring less—some even lay people off because of how they use or invest in AI—and at the same time it’s a fascinating era for all professions, especially for marketing and sales with AI, because now we can maximize our potential by finding the balance between human and technological skills.
With that goal I structured the course.

I have more than 30 years in marketing and sales and had never seen a change as big as the one AI is causing.
Today, any marketer or salesperson who doesn’t know how to work with AI is at a disadvantage.
That’s why I developed mercadotecniayventas.com: a space to re-educate quickly, combine AI with our human skills, and turn that knowledge into real employability.

Think of mercadotecniayventas.com as the Khan Academy of marketing and sales in the age of AI—in Spanish and in English. We have spent more than two years researching, writing, and teaching what works in the real world, helping students, academics, and professionals increase their productivity and turn AI into a competitive advantage.
Every month we impact thousands of people with practical, actionable content through our site and distribution platforms such as YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and especially LinkedIn.

And now I’ll tell you about the course.
The five course modules are:

Module 1 · Foundations and Mindset
Frame the job search with concrete strategies for 2026, professional ethics principles according to the AMA, and well-being habits.

Module 2 · Roles and Skills Companies Ask For
You will learn what a Marketing and Sales Coordinator does, the 10 key skills valued in Marketing, and the soft skills employers seek.

Module 3 · AI and Competitive Advantage
You will explore 10 trends that are transforming Marketing and Sales in the era of artificial intelligence and see 10 marketing functions you can enhance with ChatGPT.

Module 4 · Personal Brand and Presence
You will take a Personal Branding Minicourse, learn how to build a strong brand on LinkedIn, and work on your executive presence.

Module 5 · Job Search, Interviews, and Final Plan
You will prepare for job fairs with 7 tactics to stand out, apply 7 specific strategies for your Marketing and Sales interview, and finish with your strategic job-search plan.

I suggest completing all 5 modules from start to finish across their 17 lessons. But you can also view them like LEGO pieces: you decide where to start and which video to watch to reinforce that skill. In each video you will find valuable information that will help you better prepare to find the job you are looking for.

You have nothing to lose and a lot to gain: it is completely free (no credit card required). Just register. Visit our landing page to complete your registration and be ready to find a job. You won’t find anything similar to this course, and at university they won’t teach you all these sections in an aligned and coherent way in a course that intends to prepare you for today’s job market, which AI has revolutionized.
