Manager-in-Training (MIT) Program: The A&F training program is a comprehensive 90-day plan focused on immersing the trainee in all aspects of running a store. Training can be conducted in any of our domestic or international locations and is structured in two-week increments. Each period the trainee will shadow a different member of the management team, thus providing exposure to the basic principles of management. The store manager will conduct weekly performance assessments. An MIT must successfully complete the 90-day training program in order to be promoted to an Assistant Manager position. Ideally, progression from this position to store manager should be within 8-10 months.
Career Field: Store Management can lead to opportunities such as District Management, Marketing, Recruiting, New Store Opening Team, Visual, Merchants, Operational Training, and other Home Office opportunities. Creativity and brand imaging are consistently communicated through a "work hard, play hard" mentality.
