One course later: Launching an iGaming marketing career in less than 5 months. Meet Rhea.
With an inner passion and flair for marketing, Rhea enrolled for the 5-day Professional Diploma in Digital Marketing bootcamp. Within months, she not only got certified, but she also managed to launch a new marketing career in the iGaming industry. Just a few years later, Rhea has successfully worked her way up to a senior role. So let’s go back to how this all started.
I had enjoyed studying marketing at A-level but I hadn’t considered taking it further. At the time I was working in a sector that I wasn’t passionate about and saw this as an opportunity to start over and explore more current and dynamic areas. This brought me back to marketing. Whether you’re dealing with marketing plans, content, or data, it’s really about understanding the market and how to stand out while reaching targets through creative strategies. I’m so drawn to this and the constantly evolving digital landscape with new technologies, trends, and platforms.
The diversity of the course content—which covered fundamental topics like social media, analytics, SEO, to name a few—allowed me to really dive deep and explore various areas until I found my niche. As a visual learner, I adapted well to the engaging lesson delivery, where the educator brought expertise and practical experiences to apply to scenarios. Enrolling for this course was something I wanted to do for myself, which also makes the experience more rewarding.
I started my first experience in iGaming as a marketing assistant, only months after receiving the certificate for the course, and gradually worked my way up to my current position. The course gave me exposure to different channels of marketing, which definitely broadened my knowledge and was a stepping stone into my career. Nowadays I have so much energy and enthusiasm towards what I do, so I’m glad I was able to recognise that I needed a change and had the drive to act on it and follow through!
Your career is non-negotiable. It’s entirely yours. So if it doesn’t make you happy and you’re not inspired by it, don’t settle for it. Our lives are the result of our choices, and the decision to start over was definitely one of the better choices I’ve made. There are many routes you can take and endless opportunities, and as the cliche goes, it really never is too late to start something new. Continue to challenge yourself until you do find your passion. Never settle.
