"I've had my eye on working with Zalando for some time now. Every time I have searched for a position with the company, there hasn't been one that felt like the right fit. They've either been in the wrong field, below my skill level, or beyond my skill level. Although I love the company I currently work for, I am not as excited by it as I would be working here and kept my eye out until something that seemed perfectly suited to me came along. I figured when that happened, the timing would be right. This position feels like a great launching point for a career with Zalando, so here I am."

"This job will fit perfectly surrounding my school schedule. I hope once I complete my education that I can be given full-time hours for the summer. I am excited to work for Zalando because of the flexibility you offer students, as well as the growth potential."
