The Programme

A hands-on introduction to the business of luxury

The Glampot Internship Programme is a hands-on introduction to the business of luxury — the craft of buying, authenticating, marketing and selling pre-loved designer handbags and accessories.

As Malaysia's luxury resale pioneer, Glampot gives interns a rare, close-up view of how a modern fashion retail and e-commerce business really runs, from the floor of our Kuala Lumpur boutique to the systems behind our online store. Over a placement of around three to four months, you work alongside our small, close-knit team across marketing, sales, operations, content creation and customer care.

Interns are mentored directly by the people who built the business. Past interns have come from mass communication, business, fashion design, marketing, accounting and psychology backgrounds, at universities in Malaysia and abroad — and many describe it as the moment their careers began to take shape.

What our interns say

Glampot intern Nadine
Nadine Bachelor in Business (HR Management) KDU University College, Utropolis Glenmarie Internship · Jan – Apr 2019
The same superiors who correct you and may sometimes seem harsh are the ones who defend you when needed and credit you where credit is due. This business battles fiercely in an already highly competitive market, and I am left with such high regard for David and Gabriena Lee — because business has been, is, and always will be anything but easy.

As a student, I feel that it is extremely important to acquire real-world experience before entering the workforce. I improved myself in working under pressure, which I consider a very important skill for my future job.

Interning at Glampot was an eye-opening experience for me, as it was my first venture into the world of luxury goods. It was surprisingly fun thanks to the good-natured coworkers and supervisor, and I learned many things about style and fashion.

Glampot intern Aisyah
Aisyah Diploma in Mass Communication INTI International College Subang Internship · Jan – Mar 2019
To be a good employee, you have to be able to figure out how to solve problems. Research, have a plan B, try other options to fix it, and never give up — because that's how employers see how responsible we are towards our jobs. The purpose of an internship is to gain experience before stepping out into the real industry. So be adventurous and never complain.
Glampot intern AJ

I've met a lot of different people with different characters, and I've learned to deal with things under pressure. I gained a lot from the last three months, and the people I've worked with have always been nothing but great to me. I feel welcomed.

My internship at Glampot has taught me more than I could have imagined. It allowed me to enhance my strengths and reduce my weaknesses. I would be very happy and delighted if one day I'm given an opportunity to return and work with Glampot again.
Glampot intern Kavi
Kavi Bachelor of Applied Arts in Design Technology Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) Internship · Jun – Aug 2018
Every employee performs his or her duties with honesty, discipline, and dedication. This encouraged me to develop my skills further and expand my knowledge of how I should present myself. The main challenge I faced was demonstrating and applying the theories studied at university to real situations in the workplace.
Glampot intern Hema
Hema Diploma in Mass Communication SEGi College Kota Damansara Internship · Sep – Dec 2017
It definitely made me a better person than I was before. I am quicker in thinking and solving issues when they arise, I am more confident, and I have conquered my fear of Photoshop editing. I enjoyed a very good working company and environment.
