Responsibilities

During my internship I reviewed data and reports to understand what was selling. I analyzed trends, pricing and marketing through competitive shopping while also observing the buyer and assisted in strategic decisions. I presented selling recaps and daily report emails to my team while learning about buying, allocation and strategy.

Accomplishments

Near the end of the internship, I presented my strategy project. I had worked on it for weeks and presented my findings to the department. My team had great feedback for me and found my project to be helpful going forward!

What advice would you give?

Try and make the most out of your internship, it will fly by. Ask questions, do extra projects and say yes to opportunities!
