Ross Stores, Inc.

Assistant Buyer Intern

June - August 2017 • Los Angeles, CA

What I liked

The company culture at Ross is so great! Everyone was super helpful and really wanted to see the interns succeed. There is a lot of teamwork evident in the divisions but the buying position is also very competitive. This internship taught me a lot of skills that I can use in my professional career, whether I end up going the retail route or not.

What I wish was different

The internship is paid, and there is a stipend. However, living costs in LA are insane. Plan in advance.

Advice

Be outgoing and be willing and excited to learn. Ross really values people who are open to learning and growth.

Open door policy. Everyone is very willing to help you learn. They want you to succeed even if it means letting you fail first.

What I wish was different

Preparedness and communication inside the DC for the interns.

Advice

Be direct with you opinions and don’t be afraid to correct/confront your boss about issues
