New York Life Insurance Co.

Corporate Responsibility Intern

July - August 2020 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I had a great experience working in New York Life's summer internship program as a corporate responsibility intern. I worked remotely, and everyone was very helpful in getting me on board and welcoming me to New York Life. They gave me several different projects to work on throughout the summer, including outreach and research projects. I also participated in the programming for all of the summer interns. Overall, I gained a great deal of valuable experience and worked with very nice people. I would highly recommend the internship program at New York Life.
