What recruiters actually look for

Category trainee screens want sell-through and margin thinking. Show an assortment analysis. Wasted effort: only brand love stories. Campus drives still reward clear ownership stories over buzzword lists. Bring one artifact — sheet, deck, ticket trail, or project note — you can defend in depth.
