Caleb
Age: 16
Position: This Way Ahead Intern
Employer: Gap Inc.
Employed: June 2019
Caleb will be a junior at Mather High School this fall, and began working with YJC in April of 2019. Expressing interest in a first job with the Gap Inc This Way Ahead internship, Caleb attended a four day after-school training led by his career advisor Molly Berg and various managers of Gap, Old Navy and Banana Republic stores. Upon completing the training, Caleb landed an interview and a week later was excited to accept the offer. Caleb began working with the Gap as a Sales Associate in mid-June, and after less than a month of working there, he was named his store’s “Employee of the Month” being the first intern to ever be awarded this title! Caleb is very motivated and helpful to all customers that come into the store, and has received multiple positive feedback reports from online surveys Gap customers have taken! His manager Courtney describes him as “dependable, pleasant to work with, and always having a positive attitude as well as responding well when challenged to step outside of his comfort zone.” When asked, Caleb says his favorite part about working at the store is “knowing that he can have support anytime and see new faces.” Congratulations Caleb and keep up the great work!
