Macy's, Inc.

Buying and Merchandising Intern

June - July 2021 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I loved learning about the role of buying and getting to apply the skills I have learned in the classroom to real-life practices. I really enjoyed the company culture at Macy's corporate- I connected with some amazing people!

What I wish was different

I wish this internship had not been fully remote, because I would have loved to gone into the office and feel out a typical day as a buyer! This was the first year that the internship was offered fully remotely, due to COVID restrictions.

Advice

Internships are a great way to get your foot in the water to experience and test out what you like and don't like; do not be afraid of stepping into new roles, the roles you think you may least like, may be the roles that are most right for you!
