Because it integrates automation, statistical analysis, and marketing campaign management with the use of organisational tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/marketingplatform.google.com\/about\/display-video-360\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DV360<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/marketingplatform.google.com\/about\/campaign-manager-360\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CM360<\/a>, programmatic advertising presents a significant possibility. Human judgement is still required for approach, setup, debugging, and optimisation in specialised roles in programmatic advertising, despite the fact that AI has automated a significant amount of regular work in virtual advertising. Learning programmatic marketing can help freshers stand out because fewer candidates are familiar with these complex technologies and operations. Gaining practical expertise with business enterprise models may be difficult for people without access to an organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_code_1 et_pb_code et_pb_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_code_inner\"><style>\n.dncl{margin:12px 0 0;padding:10px 16px;background:#f3f9fd;border-left:4px solid #0B71C3;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0;font-family:Inter,Arial,sans-serif!important;font-size:16px!important;font-weight:400!important;line-height:1.55;color:#33475b}\n.dncl strong{color:#0f1b2d;font-weight:600!important;font-family:Inter,Arial,sans-serif!important}\n.dncl a{color:#0B71C3;text-decoration:underline;font-weight:600!important;font-family:Inter,Arial,sans-serif!important}\n<\/style>\n<p class=\"dncl\">This blog is written by <strong>Sakshi<\/strong>, based on the real experience of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/surendra-varma-kovvuri\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Surendra Varma<\/a>, Programmatic Manager with 9+ years of experience.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_heading_0 et_pb_heading et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\"><h2 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Introduction<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_2 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AI is changing the way digital marketing teams hire, and tasks that once needed a large team can now be handled by a few professionals who use automation. So what this means is that freshers who rely only on basic SEO, social media or Google Ads skills may find the competition a lot tougher. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ama.org\/marketing-news\/2026-career-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">American Marketing Association's 2026 career report<\/a> says as much: jobs built around execution are shrinking, while strategic skills keep their worth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Programmatic advertising gives freshers another path, which brings together automated advertising, campaign management and data analysis on enterprise tools such as DV360 and CM360, and which can lead into media agencies, ad tech companies and global marketing teams.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_heading_1 et_pb_heading et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\"><h2 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Why do freshers need to rethink digital marketing careers?<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_3 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each one went huge for its own reason, so we held all three up against one checklist.

Then we looked at the first three seconds and the story, how it was cut, and whether it asked you for anything at the end.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since generative AI took off in late 2022, companies have been automating content creation, keyword research, reporting, campaign adjustments and audience analysis, and work that used to need several executives is now sometimes managed by a smaller team. A <a href=\"https:\/\/contentmarketinginstitute.com\/press-room\/ghost-workforce-2026-marketing-careers-job-market\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2026 Content Marketing Institute survey<\/a> found that 76% of respondents were doing work which was previously associated with more than one job. It also reported weaker entry-level hiring, although only 11% of the organisations surveyed had directly replaced workers with AI.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So which skills should you learn to build a career that lasts?

Brands put close to \u20b949,000 crore into digital ads in FY2025, going by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipsos.com\/en-in\/state-digital-marketing-india-2025-26\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ET BrandEquity and Ipsos State of Digital Advertising in India 2025-26 report<\/a>, and the number is set to rise in FY2026. A good chunk of that now goes to online video, connected TV and data-driven ads, and campaigns like these are harder to handle, so brands go looking for people who can handle them.

So what this means is that the candidates who understand these workflows may stand out when they apply for media operations positions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_heading_8 et_pb_heading et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\"><h3 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Global advertising agencies need operational talent<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_10 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Networks like WPP Media, and the ad tech firms around them, keep specialists on payroll to run digital campaigns.

You might not be aware, but machine learning has been doing the bidding in programmatic for years, so AI walking in is old news for this industry. Even so, the specialists have not gone anywhere, because while the AI can optimise bids and process audience and campaign data, it still needs a person who plans the campaign and its budget, who sets it up in DV360 and CM360 and who checks that the conversion tracking is working. Ad quality, fraud, brand safety and falling performance still need a human eye too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important for you to know that programmatic is not AI-proof, since routine trafficking and reporting can be automated as well. The career advantage which it offers lies in the technical judgement, the troubleshooting, the measurement and the strategic skills which are needed to manage automated campaigns well.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_heading_10 et_pb_heading et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\"><h2 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Why do freshers find it difficult to learn DV360 and CM360?<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_12 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_flex_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The hardest part of learning programmatic is getting access to the platforms at all.
