Benefits of Membership

The purpose of the Marketing Association is to gather the resources of students, faculty, alumni, friends, and recruiters, to educate Anderson students about the field of marketing and build the careers of our members.

Our members enjoy exclusive access or priority to the following events:

Career Nights:
Talk informally at rotating roundtables with recruiters and alumni about various MBA opportunities in traditional and emerging fields of marketing. Participants last year included: Nestle, Mattel, Toyota, 20th Century Fox, Taco Bell, Clorox, Harrah’s Entertainment, Yahoo!, and more.

Corporate Presentations and Panels:
Meet prominent marketing executives, including some of our most successful alumni, while learning about their companies.

Workshops:
Learn how to interview for marketing positions (both case-based and behavioral interviews) as well as how to make your resume and cover letters stand out.  Workshops are run by students, the career management center, and recruiters to give varied perspectives on finding an internship and job. A series of other presentations are held throughout the year.

Days-on-the-Job (DOJ):
Spend a day at a company to have the opportunity to learn about the role of an MBA hire and to network with recruiters.  DOJs over the past few years have included: Toyota, Google, Del Monte, Clorox, Apple, L’Oreal, and more!

Alumni Networking:
In addition to our Dinners for Eight – informal dinners with Anderson alumni – we will also host industry-specific and topic-specific networking events with alumni.

Case Competitions:
Apply your marketing skills in UCLA Anderson’s challenging MA Case Competition or participate in one of a variety of competitions at other elite business schools.

Social:
Happy hours, lunches, dinners, mixers with alumni and other MBA schools – all great opportunities to get to know your fellow Marketing Association members and network with professors, alumni, students, and recruiters!
