Actuarial Intern (Evergreen)

A summer internship with The Cigna Group's Actuarial Executive Development Program (AEDP) gives you an 11-week experience focused on learning about a career as an actuary at our company.

In fact, the internship is The Cigna Group's main pathway for hiring full time talent. During the internship, you are asked to apply your analytical and technical skills, as well as business acumen, to complete a project that is of significant impact to The Cigna Group's business.

You will have the opportunity to take ownership of this singular project with the guidance of your direct manager while also taking part in variety of professional development opportunities.

Past intern projects have included :

• Completing an actual-to-expected analysis of brand and generic medications in order to better project the rate at which utilization of new-to-market medications increases.
• Completing a relative days analysis to understand variations in incurred medical claims by day of the week to more accurately set reserves.
• Building a dashboard to quickly identify drivers of pharmacy claim cost trends for Cigna Healthcare’s pharmacy business.
• Creating a tool that allows for more efficient and accurate testing of new pricing engines.

A group of current, full-time AEDP members, called the Intern Committee, are dedicated to making your summer the best experience possible.

They plan a variety of professional opportunities such as an actuarial speaker series, numerous professional trainings, and both individual and group case studies.

They act as mentors and organize frequent social and networking events to help you engage with other interns, as well as the wider actuarial community that makes The Cigna Group and the AEDP a great place to work.
