The Kohl’s Early Talent team is excited to launch Kohl’s University, a series of virtual professional development and career engagement opportunities for students at all levels. This series will give students across the country an opportunity to connect with Kohl’s and learn about our internship and career opportunities as well as initiatives such as diversity and inclusion, sustainability, digital, and so much more. 

How does it work (registration, participation, etc)?

Students and faculty can opt in to receive weekly email updates promoting Kohl’s University content and events (more details on opt in below). Each email will include an overview of upcoming presentations each with a specific sign up link. Students will register for the specific topics they are interested in through these unique links and we will send out a google meeting link to join the presentation 24 hours prior to the start of the session.

Some presentation topics include:

Diversity & Inclusion, Kohl’s 101, Personal Branding & Interviewing, Strategic Sourcing. Digital & Innovation, Sustainability, and overviews on our Buying Office, Technology, Marketing, Product Development, Finance, and Art & Design departments.

When will presentations be hosted?

Through this platform we will deliver live and on demand content weekly from September 8th- October 23rd. Most live content will take place via Google Meets on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 4-5pm CST (with some exceptions pending availability).

Will the content be recorded?

We encourage students to attend live if possible so that they are able to submit questions to speakers, but will make all content available in our weekly email updates after the presentations are complete.

Is there a max capacity for the events?

Yes. Each session will be limited to the first 200 students to register.

Next Steps: 

Here is the registration link if you would be interested in learning more about Kohl’s University sessions through the fall semester. Anyone who submits interest here will receive our weekly communications and have access to all previously recorded content.
