Employment Opportunity for Business Administration

"Employment of advertising, marketing, promotions, public relations, and sales managers is expected to increase by 12 percent through 2016-about as fast as the average for all occupations. Job growth will be spurred by intense domestic and global competition in products and services offered to consumers and increasing activity in television, radio, and outdoor advertising. College graduates with related experience, a high level of creativity, and strong communication skills should have the best job opportunities."
