How do you land your first retail internship? What does a category manager do all day? And how do you figure out which career path fits you?
Join the NRF Foundation and DECA on Tuesday, December 8, from 7–8 PM ET for a live student panel featuring early-career professionals who were in your shoes just a few years ago. They’ll share how they found their way into retail, what their jobs look like day-to-day, and what you can do in high school, college, or your first internship to get started.
Meet the Panelists
- Miri Chan | 2025 NRF Foundation Next Generation Scholarship Top Recipient
- Zoe Mullins | Retail Business Associate, DICK’S Sporting Goods
- Michelle Alcocer | Associate Category Manager, Smart & Final
Bring a question you’d like to ask someone working in retail. Whether you’re wondering what to look for in a first internship or how the skills you’re building in DECA could translate to a retail career, you’ll have the chance to ask the panelists directly.
