Hello! I am a junior studying Public Health and Information Technology and Informatics at Rutgers University. Currently I’m in search of a summer internship within healthcare consulting, analytics or tech - does anyone have any advice on how to get into the field or firms to apply to?

ZS - but most firms distinguish between healthcare and life sciences. ZS is pretty much exclusively life sciences (pharma, biotech) if you're into that. I would recommend maybe S&, Huron, OW as standout firms for Healthcare. and obviously broadly speaking almost every large firm has a healthcare practice but just make sure it's what you want (e.g. whether you want to be doing process improvement, tech implementation, strategy, etc. for a healthcare company vs LS). within healthcare, there's a further distinction between payer and provider. do your own research through alumni networking rather than listening to recruiters bc as a Rutgers alum I can tell you the recruiting events are selling you a vision rather than a picture of the actual work. hope that helps.

Hi Folks,

I'm actively looking for a job change in a profile completely different than what I'm doing currently.
My manager is sending me on-site and this will interrupt my interviews and preparation also.
And by that time if I receive any offer letter, I don't know what should I do?

Shall I reject the on site opportunity or go with it and reject the new offer?

Would not getting that minor do any harm to me short or long term? Im thinking that if I end up at consulting especially no one will care about a management minor they’ll just look at the firm I worked for.
