Your day might include scheduling social posts, pulling email performance reports, updating website content, and supporting whatever campaign is live. The variety is a feature — you're figuring out what you like.
The people who succeed here are adaptable and self-directed. You'll often need to figure things out without much guidance. It's a great role for learning, but can feel scattered if you prefer depth over breadth.
