Internships

Summer 2008

This internship has been a wonderful adventure.  It enabled me to fine tune my sewing skills and apply these to historic artifacts.  I was able to learn so much in the short amount of time that I was here. Working with such textiles made me feel like I was helping future generations by enabling them to view historic works that are free of slits, stains, and disintegration. - Annie-Beth Ellington, intern TCS, Indianapolis, IN.

The Dillard's internship program was an amazing opportunity where I learned more about the industry than I could ever have hoped to learn--a valuable experience I will use for the rest of my life. - Casey Becker, intern, Dillards, Lexington, KY.

 "My internship with Designtex helped to prepare me further in my career. I got the opportunity to take part in the biggest mart, Neocon.  My internship also brought me a job offer that I accepted !" -Elizabeth Sikorski, intern, Designtex, Chicago, IL.

"This was a great learning experience and my expectations have been exceeded by the internship. I learned about so many different aspects of the industry and I am looking forward to pursuing a career as an assistant merchant"- Kaitlin Grosser, intern, Fort Myers , Florida.

"I have been exposed to many aspects of merchandising while interning at Tommy Hilfiger Corporate office. I have seen how a new line for a season begins. It takes lot of hard work and time to prepare the perfect look and display of merchandise that will be sold in each store." - Sarah Bickett, intern, Tommy Hilfiger Corporate office, NYC.
