I liked that the simulation felt practical and realistic. It gave me the opportunity to analyze data, identify the problem with Power Squares, compare different recovery strategies, and make a business decision. I also liked that it focused on teamwork, communication with suppliers, and using data to make decisions.

I really liked how realistic and immersive the scenarios were. Stepping into the merchant's seat to troubleshoot an underperforming item forced me to balance data analysis with strategic thinking. It was highly rewarding to analyze digital shelf signals and practice pitching a concrete recommendation to a supplier, which gave me a genuine look into a day in the life of a retail professional.
I enjoyed how the simulation mirrored real workplace scenarios and required me to make decisions using data rather than assumptions. The tasks were engaging, practical, and helped me think like a category manager by balancing customer needs, business goals, and operational constraints. It was a valuable learning experience that strengthened my analytical and decision-making skills.
