Career fairs can feel a little overwhelming—rows of tables and booths, lots of new faces, and plenty of opportunity you want to seize. The trick is transforming that vibe into confidence so you stand out for all the right reasons. With a few smart prep steps, you’ll walk in ready to impress and walk out with connections that count. Success in professional networking starts right here.
On October 14, the LIM College Career Fair took place at the FOUND Study - Midtown East residence hall in Manhattan.
Each year, a select group of students earns the title of “Senior Co-Op All Star” in recognition of their outstanding performance both in the workplace and in the corresponding academic course. These individuals go above and beyond, demonstrating professionalism, creativity, adaptability, and leadership.
We’re proud to introduce the Spring 2025 Senior Co-Op All Stars—nine exceptional students who made the most of their internships at some of the industry’s most respected companies:
Macy Melancon
Florina Adili (’10), Regional VP for Ulta Beauty offers insights on building a successful future.
Tony Spring was formerly Chairman and CEO of Bloomingdale’s.
Arons also co-founded the Kate Spade brand.

Michael obtained his bachelor's at FIT and later began working at Tommy Hilfiger as an allocator. Wanting a master's program that would impart skills specific to the business side of the fashion world, Michael chose LIM College’s online Fashion Merchandising and Retail Management degree as the next step in his education.
LIM College is implementing a new policy requiring that all students be compensated for internships and co-operative (co-op) work experiences at minimum wage or above. It applies to in-person, remote, and hybrid internships and co-op experiences. The new policy will be phased in over three years, beginning this in the Fall 2024 semester and progressing through the 2026-2027 academic year, when it will cover all students.
