There were no changes in my primary job responsibilities over the course of my placement.

Overall I would rate this company as average.

I would not recommend this site to other students because their internship program is not effective. There needs to be a lot more structure for their program.

If I could change anything about this placement it would be to work under the VP of fashion in the New York office.

Advice I would give other students pursuing an internship would be to ask very specific questions on the job you are applying for, make sure that the job responsibilities assigned will enhance your skills and that you'll learn a lot or else you will be wasting time.
