Orientation at Donna Karan

When I heard there was an orientation for my internship, I thought Ugh, that's going to be boring, but surprisingly it was the exact opposite. All the interns sat around a giant TV eating munchkins and sipping on juice, as we watched three videos about the Donna Karan company and the internship program. Different employees spoke to us about their jobs and their excitement and enthusiasm about the company was so genuine and welcoming.

After the introductions, each intern was sent to their department to get a taste for what would be in store for the next few days. When I got the news that I had been accepted to such a competitive program I was thrilled, but I did think I was going to be the coffee run girl, but it was for Donna Karan (so thats good…right?) --- but I was pleasantly surprised. As an intern, I will actually be partaking in the company's day-to-day activities, be observing my supervisor, have the opportunity to meet other interns around my age, and work with other departments to get a feel for other aspects of the larger company. I can't wait to get started and learn more about my department and the company --- here it goes!
