Merchandising Intern

May - August 2018 • Walker, MI

What I liked

This internship experience was a great introduction to a big, fast-paced work environment and I was able to learn from many excellent professionals over a variety of departments.

What I wish was different

You are given a mentor and a first assistant (boss), my mentor was amazing and I learned so much from her, but I wish that my first assistant would have been more hands-on.

Advice

Bring your A-game. Most of the other interns are from Ivy League schools or Big Ten business schools, so the competition is stiff.
