About The Position
At DICK'S Sporting Goods, interns will have the opportunity to work with and learn from the leaders of a growing Fortune 400 company. DICK'S Sporting Goods is returning to campus this year to recruit, train, and develop top collegiate talent into well-rounded merchants. During the 11-week summer experience, interns will take on meaningful work assignments and make tangible contributions to the organization's success. This structured and well-organized program provides on-the-job training, classroom instruction, cross-functional departmental exposure, and an end-of-program project presentation. Interns will be placed in various areas, including Allocations & Replenishment and Buying. The goal of an assistant inventory planner intern is to develop a skill-set that allows for accurate execution and optimization of available systems to ensure the right product gets to the right place at the right time to meet athlete demand. Interns will leverage corporate and ad-hoc reporting to review and react to store inventory concerns, trends, and opportunities, utilize analytical skills to make data-driven decisions, and maintain proper inventory levels by store location to support sales, margin, and turn goals. On the other hand, the assistant buyer intern will gain insight into how a department-level merchandise strategy is built, how assortments are chosen to support the strategy, and how these align to meet financial expectations. Interns will discuss the business by utilizing various reporting tools, participate in internal meetings, assist buyers in developing merchandise assortments, and research economic, financial, market, competitive, and industry data to explain current business trends and anticipate new trends. The internship experience includes multi-day intern orientation, professional development workshops, extensive exposure to senior leadership, opportunities to live the brand, and fully furnished summer housing for non-local interns. Interns will work a 40-hour work week, Monday to Friday, and will be evaluated for full-time positions in 2026 at the end of the program.
