My job scope here basically:
- Develop websites (corporate and e-commerce websites)
- Design something for marketing purpose
- Help other coworker if they have any computer problem

you are in digital marketing?

develop websites is more to UXUI designer now

design something for marketing purpose you mean hero banner and some images with marketing message?

then do you do facebook marketing? instagram marketing? email markting? google ads marketing?

not sure will you back to engineering.

But if you are doing develop website and design something for marketing, you future path will be stick to UXUI or multimedia design.

the industry needs UXUI designer now but quite hectic imo

if your job position is digital marketing, shd ask the company to let you do some marketing purpose like email marketing, google ads, google analytics, learn about marketing + analytics at the same time.

Yes, because actually my boss gonna save some budget and he asked me to develop websites which I learn entirely from Google because it's not really my job here but I managed to complete corporate and ecommerce websites which is really hard for me haha.

And yes too, design something like that hero banner, catalog, etc..

And more yes, I do fb ads, ig marketing, ems, google ads, analytics and quite a few more too. Actually I'm here is the first one in marketing dept. Only me in marketing here so most of the things I know I learned myself in this company.

From your opinion, should I move back to engineering or stay in this path? Not sure if this path (which my job scope now as mentioned by you) will have a bright future ahead because many competitions.
What do you mean by this? Quite hectic?

im in this industry so i think it is bright, because social media always exist, and AI is coming in, and you need analytics to analyse the data for your marketing purpose. So it is important.

Im not sure about your path, you can decide based on what are you doing now VS engineering

Ya, I think IT has so many field that takes hundreds years to master all. Maybe need to choose something like more demandable in the future... biggrin.gif
Seriously, I agreed with this. I'm working as a design freelancer too, so my client always demand that, want to amend that and that but want cheaper price for something I took hours to do lol.

My boss too, I sent him a design, then he rejected, need to do another... T.T
