I got real, hands on industry experience. The team I was working on was small and they included me in fittings,, weekly line review meetings, and even important sales meetings during market week.
What I wish was different
At some points, I felt like my tasks were becoming repetitive. Although I enjoy working with this program, most of the work that I did for the brand exclusively done on Adobe Illustrator and it was all sketching garments.
Advice
I think an intern going into a private label internship experience needs to be able to take initiative and work independently. Especially on a small team, each person is assigned their own responsibilities. It is important to get these done efficiently or speak up and ask for help if you are stuck.
