T-3000Personally, I like to put the months instead of spring or fall. Fall 2011-Spring 2012 could mean Dec-Mar or Sept-June. Everything else looks good. Can you tell us how you landed so many internships back-to-back?

Agreed completely, but I just wanted to keep this resume version as simple as possible. I do use the Months-Year format in my official resume though. Thanks for the heads-up.

It was a combination of talking to people, being courteous and humble (this goes such a long way), and proving my work ability (building a reputation as a hard worker, not afraid to work long hours, common everyday interests -- drinking, music, food, movies, etc). I don't consider myself a spectacular candidate, but my clothing/fashion experience has been an eye-catcher to the people I've talked to (e.g. something "unique," though I don't think it is all that much). I also want to mention that although we all talk to a bunch of people, all you need is 1 person to go to bat for you. When that happens, you better not let them down (in the interview or otherwise).

If I can do it, anybody can do it. I'm not joking when I say this. Just have the right attitude, don't be afraid to talk to people (even if you think there won't be a connection, but most often times, they most likely went through the same recruiting/career process), and hit the ground running as quickly as possible (both in the workplace and introductory emails/coffee/lunch meetings).
