Fit might not come across on a job
description. But candidates who “fit” feel strongly connected with all
the things a woman values, believes in, supports, defends, embraces,
loves. They’re relationship builders, team players, believers in
fashion first and people always. Those “one in a million” candidates
are the ones we covet. Because they’re capable of shaping an experience
that will make someone’s day; inspire her to look, feel and be her best.
They make it happen. Because they get it. Because they fit.
By joining Ann Taylor, you will be contributing to our mission of creating a
modern, chic, sophisticated, and highly relevant brand.
