What my friend did: He looked all around for a job and told the proprietor of a specialty food store that he would work for free. The proprietor allowed him to intern there and showed him all around the store, how he runs the store, and what is required to run the store. Now he has resume experience, a mentor, and a thorough understanding of the food retail business. He's going to be opening a B+M food retail store, but he didn't want to tell me the details.

Speaking of, I need to meet with him next week.
