Store Management Intern
Testimonial:
"My
Office Depot internship helped me to narrow down my career
choices by giving me a real-life window into the professional
world. When I accepted the internship offer, I had no previous
retail experience, just an interest. However, I found that
no previous experience was required, I was taught everything
I needed to know. The store managers that I worked with were
both helpful and supportive. The employees of the store reflected
the same attitude, working there was fun. I learned about
virtually every facet of retail management and what it really
takes to run a successful store. Upon graduation, Office Depot
had continued to treat me so well I decided to work here full
time."
