Jonathan P. Mustich
Jonathan P. Mustich was a finance
major at the University of Maryland and just wanted to work in New York City
after graduation. The only job he was able to land was as a financial analyst
at Macy's. The plan was to stay there a year and then land a job at a top
finance firm to learn the world of trading. After a few months, he
realized that he wanted to stay in fashion for a little longer to test it out.
A new division called retail planning was started which involved finance,
design, merchandising, and interactions with almost every division in the
company. He applied, and was accepted, to the position after many interviews
with top executives at Macy's.
After
working in planning, he fell in love with the fashion world because every
season was a new challenge. From Macy's he moved on to start the planning
department at DKNY and then at Joseph Abboud. After about 6 months at Joseph
Abboud, Jonathan was promoted to Director of Planning and the entire company,
from finance to design, was run through him. It was during this position
that he took a weeklong trip by himself to Sweden to come up with his current
business venture, Evolution of Style LLC.
Jonathan
now has a year under his belt and has helped numerous college students dress
for success in this very tough business climate. His goal is to let your skills
leave an impression on the interviewer, not your lack of style! jonathan@evolutionofstyle.com
