Take your time, don't get too comfortable because then you'll start to make mistakes. Just do and say what you know, don't be afraid to tell a customer when you're unsure of something.

I enjoy my being around my coworkers and the good teamwork they provide.

Allowing part-time sales floor workers to have morning shifts and not just swing shifts.

If you do not feel comfortable in a job despite doing everything to make things better, do not be afraid to leave the job even if it pays well. Being in that positive mental state is what it ultimately comes down to.

What I liked

I liked the overall work and employees. Many of the employees and the managers were respectful and understanding if there were any concerns.

What I wish was different

What I wish what had been different was being more out spoken if i had any questions, during the first few weeks I did not ask much and that affect some of the working process. I also wish I could have applied sooner.

Advice

One piece of advice is that this job involves a lot of strength and ability to stand long hours, but overall it is not extremely difficult job to handle.

Retail Leader Intern

May - August 2018 • Chicago, IL

What I liked

I really liked how much freedom they gave me, right off the bat. They threw me into their meetings and daily routines. While it was hectic at times, they gave any and all necessary help. I also really liked the days the internship had when we were out of the office, getting a taste of other areas of the business.

What I wish was different

I wish there was a tad more structure to the internship. I think some of the other interns had varying experiences from mine. I also wish that the recruiting process was a little quicker. I applied in January and did not hear back until April.

Advice

Go in with an open mind and a willingness to work! You will learn a lot, but you have to be ready to work for it.

Area supervisor

December 2016 • Plainfield, IL

What I liked

I loved the opportunity for growth in the company

What I wish was different

There was not much accountability for associates. If a policy was broken, there was no follow up on making sure the incidents weren't repeated.

Advice

There is a new store manager about to take over the store so just making sure to bring any current issues up so they can be addressed.
