Yena joined us as an intern in August for 3 months. She graduated from Koomin University with Management Information System degree. Please check about Yena. Hope she will learn a lot from us.
I was born in Seoul, Korea and now live in Pangyo where is a new town near Seoul. I am a participant in Korea WEST, which is an international exchange program of the U.S. and South Korean governments. I studied English in San Diego for 4 months before coming to New York. And It has been 8 months since I came to New York.
Why do you want to work at KNY: When I looked for internship, I saw KNY wants people to see their philosophy on the website before applying for the internship. When I first saw the philosophy, the first thing that comes to my mind was how KNY people put all their effort on their company's success. Under their philosophy, I thought this is the only company that i can widen my horizons and improve myself by working. Also, In order to have a job in fashion industry in the future, I need to learn practical experience in business and see how fashion business works. Assisting with the sales team at KNY can let me understand our business well.
What is your goal for internship: Firstly, I want to know how Katsu New york operates and how their philosophy affects their business. Also, even if I am working here as an intern, I want to be blended with the KNY family. I want to interact with them and share our thoughts. Thus, I hope i could completely understand the whole process of fashion company at the end of my internship.
What is your goal in 3 years: Because I already graduated university before I came to the U.S, I would like to have a stable job in fashion industry with my internship experience. For the next couple or three years, I will be working and gaining experience. But because I am enjoying working in the U.S. now,especially working with many international people who are from different countries, I would find a way to work in the U.S. fashion market after I go back to Korea.
