Licensing Sales Intern - Apparel, Footwear & Accessories Review

I work with the licensing sales team for Apparel, Accessories and Footwear across all of EMEA to provide support where needed. Often I am working on administrative tasks ensuring processes run smoothly for example managing contract amendments and submitting approvals. However, I also work creatively for example creating and delivering trend and inspiration pitches to external licensees.

I have been able to develop my use of Adobe, specifically Illustrator. I have also learnt so many skills regarding office etiquette, networking and trend forecasting.

Yes, I was eased into responsibility however I was given full responsibility on some tasks and trusted with big briefs or to look after very senior/important guests at large events.

My manager was brilliant at supporting me through all the challenges of work. I was guided through the initial few weeks of the process and slowly given more and more responsibility. I know that if I have any questions I could always go to her.

Having an Intern cohort to rely on is so crucial to why the working environment at Disney is so supportive. The company is a good employer and the atmosphere of the floor/company is great. However, I know that this is not the case of all interns and some have found the environment to be not so supportive, my personal experience was just extremely positive.

I loved working at Disney. I was lucky to have such a lovely and supportive team who not only provided me with a great working environment but also pushed me to explore other roles/teams to broaden my scope. I volunteered at events and met senior leadership I never thought I would be able to which all benefitted to the experience. It is a great place to do an internship as you can learn so much in such a big company and having 200 other interns makes the experience like nothing else.

Be confident in your application and ensure you read every ounce of the job description before applying/interviewing. Have questions prepared and be aware that you are not expected to know everything as an intern.
