I engaged in small discussions with executives from CVS, DICKS’S Sporting Goods, and many other companies. The event wrapped up with a career fair, offering opportunities to connect with top retailers for internships and entry-level roles. Hearing from these accomplished professionals, especially Yoshihide Shindo (CEO of UNIQLO USA), was incredibly memorable and powerful. This experience left me very excited about the future of the retail industry. Thank you, NRF, for hosting such spectacular events!
