Looking For Transition Into Strategy/Marketing based roles
Hi all, I am a recent graduate from an old IIM (Batch 2024) currently working as an Account Executive/Territory Manager for FedEx in India. I wish to transition into strategy/marketing based roles as soon as possible. Can you all recommend what are the possibilities for me, and what are the required key skill sets that I should develop for this change.
To transition into Strategy/Marketing roles, focus on:
Tech Skills: Advanced Excel (pivots, macros), SQL (basic queries), and presentation tools (PowerPoint, Canva)
Business Acumen: Learn competitive analysis and market sizing frameworks
Networking: Connect with IIM alumni in target roles

P.S. Your FedEx experience is valuable—frame it as "scaled operations in X market" for strategy roles.
