Marketing Grads Make the Biggest Salary Gains, But What Do They Do?

I recently wrote about the best paying jobs for recent college graduates and listed the percentage increases to the starting salaries that these college grads should expect to receive. The highest paying job for recent college graduates were economics (business / managerial) and finance grads with average offers at $53,449 and $47,877, respectively. But the grads who saw the biggest increases in compensation were marketing graduates with an average 10.3 percent increase from 2006 to 2007 to $41,285.

So what is it that marketing grads do? There are a variety of jobs, but many become marketing managers. To see what they do, watch this short career video, which is just one of 350 career videos available courtesy of CollegeRecruiter.com:
