About This Job

If you’re looking to use strong analytical and math skills in a competitive, fast-paced environment, an Underwriting career in Group Benefit Solutions will allow you to do all this and more.

This 10-week program will expose you to what life as an underwriter will be like and is a great way to assess whether the underwriting profession is a good fit for you. As part of our internship program, you will have a direct impact on the financial results of our business while helping us deliver on a longstanding commitment of providing financial protection and peace of mind to the millions we serve.

• Collaborate with GBS interns from around the country on a summer long project that challenges your problem-solving, analytical, and collaboration skills

• Routine speaker series hosted by New York Life leaders from a variety of Finance and Underwriting functions
