Risk Management & Insurance and Human Resources Management
Provide a general description of the work at your internship.
I supported consultants, associate consultants, and employee benefits specialists through completing client specific projects, presentation, and the creation of client facing materials.
Did you have a mentor?
Yes
If so, how did he/she help you during your internship? Kris had a tremendous impact on my internship by giving me the opportunity to work on her book of business of large private entities. She allowed me to sit in on critical strategy conversations really allowing me to learn not only technical skills during my internship, but also the critical thinking behind the bigger picture for each client.
Did you feel your RMI/AS classes better prepared you for the internship?
Absolutely, I had a strong foundation in Employee Benefits so that I was able to hit the ground running.
Were you assigned any special projects? If so please describe.
Another intern and I were asked to put together a benefit benchmark for a specific industry which represented a sizable number of CSB's large private clients. This benchmark which was to be utilized by a number of different consultants and their teams.
What were the supplemental benefits besides the pay?
Internship lunches with Senior Leadership, inclusion in department lunch and learns, and weekly bagels and benefits. Describe the company's internship program.
In my experience, it was evident from day one that Conner Strong and Buckelew values its interns immensely. I was never given a project that wasn't going to either be utilized internally by our teams or was going to be sent to a client or their carrier partners. That level of inclusion on the activity of different books of business really allows the intern to feel like they had a positive impact on the company's success and made a real, material, contribution to their team.
Was the internship what you expected after the interviewing/hiring process?
The internship was even better than I expected.
Were you provided time off besides the weekend?
We were provided with hourly PTO accrual.

Did you feel your RMI/AS classes better prepared you for the internship?
Yes

Provide a General Description of the Internship. Include daily tasks completed, the company and its employees, and any other information.
It was a standard 40 hour work week. I created request for proposals of medical, dental, prescription, and voluntary benefits lines to send to insurance carriers and analyzed quotes received. I generated Excel files from insurance carrier data and delivered results to clients in meetings with Senior Consultants.
Did you have a mentor?
Yes
If so, how did he/she help you during your internship?
I absolutely loved my mentor! She delighted some projects to me and always asked me how I was doing and if I had any questions. She would also always give me feedback on the tasks I completed. I went to a few client meetings with her and over the course of the summer we got to know each other better. She really just made the "internship transition" so much more comforting.
Did you feel your RMI/AS classes better prepared you for the internship?
Yes! Drennan's Employee Benefits class definitely proved to be beneficial (if you studied!!). Perhaps there was nothing I used directly when working on excel files, but all the terms we learned definitely came into play and the class just gave be a better understanding of the health care world."
Interviewing/Hiring Process Comments:
After the reception where I spoke to HR, I had an interview at Temple on the 6th floor and then at the headquarters in Marlton.
Were you assigned any special projects? If so please describe.
I started out by peer-reviewing SBC and SPD documents. I then often worked on Request for Proposals. I also had the opportunity to attend different client meetings with senior consultants. I created an employee survey for one of our clients. A bigger project I worked on throughout the entire program was creating PowerPoints for Wellness Programs different carriers offer for self-funded and fully insured arrangements. Moreover, I reached out to various account managers from different carriers in regards to the different offerings they have for small employers (less than 400 lives) looking to self-fund. I created a spreadsheet highlighting and comparing different self-funding opportunities each carrier offers so that when one of our clients is looking to perhaps switch to self funding, a Conner Strong consultant can pull up this spreadsheet and guide our client in the right direction.
What were the supplemental benefits besides the pay? (Internship Lunches, Housing, Sports Games, Happy Hours, etc.)
Every once in a while there would be catering trays with sandwiches in the cafeteria from left over Client Meetings. Also, all the intern events usually had breakfast/lunch provided for us. Community Day was a paid day where we helped out in various ways at a local Elementary School. We got free shirts and a lunch at Hooligans restaurant. On Employee Appreciation Day, everyone got big cooler bags and beach towels with Conner Strong's logo. We had free 10 minute massages that day as well as ben and jerry's ice-cream! Different managers also took me out to lunch a couple of times!
Describe the company's internship program(atmosphere, work load, work, housing, outside work activities, etc.).
I absolutely loved the internship program! We had an intern event almost every week. The internship program included 2 business workshops, a Phillies Game, a Scavenger Hunt as well as employee appreciation day, Community Day and other little benefits along the way. Everyone was extremely helpful and within a few weeks I had plenty of work which I was very happy about. The company culture is great. Everyone is willing to help and everyone wants to ensure that you are truly learning. Once a week we would have weekly chats where we would discuss what we've learned, liked, could improve, etc.
Was the internship what you expected after the interviewing/hiring process?
Yes
Were you provided time off besides the weekend?
4th of July the company was closed but it was considered a payed holiday. July 3rd was also a half day and paid. I also took off two days for personal vacation (not paid). As I mentioned earlier, all the intern events through out the summer were paid as well.
If you had to relocate, describe the process of adapting to a new city.
I did not relocate, but I drove to Marlton, NJ from Bucks County, PA. The drive took some getting used to.

Did you have a mentor?
No
Did you feel your RMI/AS classes better prepared you for the internship?
Yes. Compared to the other interns that weren't AS/RMI majors we were at an advantage of understanding the basic concepts and terms, while others were challenged with the task of learning those concepts.
Interviewing/Hiring Process Comments:
There was an on campus interview, then a interview at the office. The interview at the office was for about an hour and I met my potential managers. The questions were very straight-forward, which a strong focus on personalty based questions.
Were you assigned any special projects? If so please describe.

Yes. The company sponsored a networking event for the interns at a Phillies game as well as a center-city scavenger hunt in Philly.
Describe the company's internship program(atmosphere, work load, work, housing, outside work activities, etc.).
The atmosphere was very welcoming and encouraging. I felt like I could ask any question I had and not feel ridiculed for asking. The employees I interacted with wanted me to learn as much as possible of the business. At the end of the internship all interns are required to give intern presentations on a subject of their choice.
Was the internship what you expected after the interviewing/hiring process?

Provide a General Description of the Internship. Include daily tasks completed, the company and its employees, and any other information.
A normal day would be from 8:30 to 5pm. The most common task was policy checking and policy auditing. However, I was exposed to a bunch of different projects that assisted the team I was placed on, ranging from editing pre-renewal/renewal presentations, updating schedules of insurance, creating named insured matrices, sending endorsement requests to underwriters, compiling renewal invoices to clients, checking proposals against statement of values and coverage summaries, calculating and verifying audit rates, updating flood zones, etc.
Did you have a mentor?
Yes
If so, how did he/she help you during your internship?
We didn't each have personal mentors, but there were two mentors assigned to the group of interns at the Philly office who were always available if we had questions. We also had weekly "Lunch & Learns" with them.
Did you feel your RMI/AS classes better prepared you for the internship?
Yes! It feels great to be able to understand the lingo when in meetings or speaking to other employees. Also being able to have a basis in understanding in concepts when going through policies and situations.
Interviewing/Hiring Process Comments:
There were 3 rounds. First was at the intern reception where I spoke with two people, second was in the department with one person, and third was in the Philadelphia Conner Strong office with two more people. After the third round I got a call with an offer within about a week or so.
Were you assigned any special projects? If so please describe.
Not necessarily any one specific project, but I was always involved in mostly everything my team was working on or preparing for.
What were the supplemental benefits besides the pay? (Internship Lunches, Housing, Sports Games, Happy Hours, etc.)
Besides the fact that there was almost ALWAYS food in the kitchen, there were the weekly "Lunch & Learns" with the mentors where lunch was brought into the conference room for us, happy hours after a day of volunteering and after the end of summer intern scavenger hunt. My managers also took me to lunch a few times throughout the summer. We also got some cool gear for employee appreciation day.
Describe the company's internship program(atmosphere, work load, work, housing, outside work activities, etc.).
Conner Strong offers an amazing experience for their interns. The company culture is very welcoming and upbeat. Everyone is super nice and willing to help. It is a very "work hard, play hard" atmosphere. There were a couple "formal" training sessions to get us accustomed to using the software and another intro to insurance session. Other than that there was just an online training program that we were told to complete at the beginning of the internship.
Was the internship what you expected after the interviewing/hiring process?
Yes
Were you provided time off besides the weekend?
We only had off for the 4th of July, other than that we were asked to not miss days from the internship, but they were understanding if you had valid reasons for requesting off.
