Careers
Career opportunities are plentiful and graduates have many career paths to pursue. Two essential elements for a successful retail career are the flexibility to locate where the greatest opportunities exist and the willingness to meet new challenges.
Employment
Employment opportunities are numerous. Employers value people with training and, therefore, hire students for positions such as assistant store manager, visual presentation assistant and management trainee. As students succeed on the job, they may advance to positions such as visual presentation coordinator, store manager, district manager or retail buyer. This is especially true for students willing to relocate with a company and/or locate to metropolitan areas.
