If I have the opportunity to choose one of those job positions, I would like to apply as marketing manager. Because I have degree in Economy, knowledge about the marketing field, and English skills. The annual salary is reasonable and also I enjoy working with people from different countries. It would be a great way to pick up some German language.

Well, there is so little choice. I have a driving license but don't have driving experience, I also don't know French and I'm not registered to work in the UK. What is left? Marketing manager? I don't fully meet the requirements but what else I can do?
