Commercial Product Management Intern

“I really enjoyed the culture and mindset of Healthfirst. Its a large company, but it feels very close knit and accessible like a startup. Everyone there was so knowledgeable and passionate, it was inspiring. My mentors and co-workers cared about my professional development, but they also were flexible and allowed me to change my projects and focus to reflect the type of work I wanted to explore more, which helped make this internship a great learning experience. ”
