Toronto, we’re back again this year! And this time we’ll be diving into the career stages of marketing research. We know that no MR career is exactly the same. Everyone takes a different path, but if we’re lucky – we’ll all visit the 5 career stages at some point: Exploration, Establishment, Mid-Career, Late Career and Retirement. For each stage, we’ll discuss the challenges you’ll face and what success looks like. We also brought in speakers to talk to these career stages so they can share their experiences and inspire us on our career journeys. So join us for some bevvies and apps to discuss your career and where it’s headed. Space for this event is limited and registration is required—invite your friends and colleagues for a fun, MR focused evening! Everyone who’s involved in marketing research is welcome, including men that support women in MR. A BIG thank you to Sylvestre & Co. and The Logit Group for supporting this event. As always, we couldn’t do this event without you! *We are truly grateful for your support*
