Supervisor, if you are hiring summer workers, promise me that you will not act like the following examples 👉 Reflecting on my own early summer career experiences, I have encountered situations where my appearance seems more important than my skills and motivation: 1️⃣ At just 15, I was told my red hair didn't align with a restaurant's image. Rather than compromise my identity, I chose to walk away. 👩🏼🦰 🧡 2️⃣ I applied for a job as a salesperson in a well-known clothing store, but because I had black-brown hair and all the other employees had white blond hair, it was clear that I didn't fit in. I was ghosted after the interview. 👩🏻🖤 2️⃣ It was summer time and I used self-tanner. This did not sit well with my supervisor, who scolded me in front of customers and loudly said that my skin was a dirty color. I told the senior managers about this and the story ended with me canceling my summer job contract. 👩🏾 🤎 4️⃣ One summer, I worked in a clothing store. However, the fact that I had bought designer shoes (* using my summer job money and savings) for work was too much for my supervisor, who started teasing me and questioning who I really thought I was. That work experience was short-lived, because mentally being the object of criticism day after day was too heavy for me. 👠 I want to remind you that you are good just the way you are and you don't need to change anything about yourself to please others. ☝ We must not forget about diversity. A person's appearance does not say anything about a person's competence or motivation. So let's give everyone a chance, whether the person had green hair or strong make-up. 🤝 😊 #DiversityIsPower #BeYourself

OMG!!! I'm officially a social media ambassador for Hollister Co. under Abercrombie & Fitch Co. 🥳 Growing up, I remember going into my local mall and wanting to be a commercial model for stores like Hollister and Abercrombie & Fitch. But growing up in a predominantly white town, I was shamed for being a woman of color... ... and I was even told by my white classmates that I could never be a model because I'm "too Asian," "too exotic," or "not normal enough." But a few years later, here I am... ...one step closer to one of my dreams of becoming a commercial model :) And in the process, I've learned 3 things: ✅ Don't listen to people who tell you to be "more normal." If you live life trying to please others, you will never be satisfied. So you might as well do what you genuinely love. ✅ Unapologetically pursue the things you want to pursue. Don't let your peers influence your career path. Don't let your parents influence your career path. It's your career, not theirs. And if they don't support your dreams, pursue those dreams anyway because you'll regret it if you don't. It's better be happy chasing your dream than miserable chasing someone else's. ✅ Don't let others' opinions of you shape your self worth. Growing up, I was a huge people pleaser. But I realized...why do I keep pleasing other people at the expense of my personal dreams and wellbeing? So when I stopped listening to others' opinions and unapologetically chased my dreams at full-speed, I started getting the opportunities I wanted. And so can you. ❤️ - With that being said, check out my ambassador storefront with links to my favorite Hollister Co. dresses and clothes that I wear! https://lnkd.in/gWf9kjHK - 🚀 P.S.

Another #internship opportunity for U.S. Department of Labor scrutiny. It’s not clear whether the employer will pay at least minimum wage, if the candidate has already graduated and therefore will not get college credit. Yet it is clear this is a job and the person doing it will have duties essential to the #business operations. It won’t be primarily a learning environment. #Employers, #interns are not “free labor” for you to exploit. #ShareTheWealth #EmploymentIsAPartnership
