Macy's, Inc.

Store Management Intern

June - August 2017 • Plantation, FL

What I liked

I was constantly learning new things. The team welcomed me immediately and started treating me like an actual manager from day one. This internship encouraged me to get out of my comfort zone and expand my horizons professionally.

What I wish was different

I think the communication from Corporate to the stores definitely has room for improvement.

Advice

Don’t be afraid to take matters into your own hands. One of the reasons I was treated as an equal by the other executives is because I wasn’t afraid to make my own judgement calls and be confident in my decisions. It was really scary and intimidating at times, but by doing this it helped me develop myself as a professional and a leader.

Omni Merchandise Planning Intern

June - July 2017 • New York City, NY

What I liked

It was a great opportunity to learn about retail and how Macy's operates. You have the chance to get involved in different aspects of the business, and they teach you a lot.

What I wish was different

Sometimes I felt like a cog in the wheel since it is a very large company. I didn't feel like I was pushed as much as I could have been.

Advice

Definitely take advantage of all of the talks that executives will run, it's a great chance to get a broader overview of the company.
