This job has been so amazing with working around my schedule. Through the years and summer, I grow in confidence in interacting with people. This has been my only job, and they have been so good with me.
What I wish was different
I wish that I could have explored different positions this summer. I get moved around a lot, but this summer I was in one position.
Advice
You must be super patient to work in retail.

Management Intern
June - August 2018 • Vacaville, CA
What I liked
Great hands on experience in managing a team. Learning how to merchandise and daily functions of a large volume retail store. Working during peak periods including back to school.
What I wish was different
I wish they would have been more clear upfront that after this internship relocation within the west coast region was a part of the next position and as an assistant store manager.
Advice
Going from working fot the school to working for a large retailer is a very different environment. Research what could come and be expected of you after the internship so you know if you are potentially moving in a direction you don't want.

It’s important to work as much as you can during the summer because when the fall semester rolls around you never know what you’ll need to pay for.
