Providence Ready is a healthcare provider group located in Oregon, Washington, California, Alaska, New Mexico, and Texas. They offer paid internships for college seniors and graduate students throughout the year. Interns may be placed in various departments such as Finance, Community Health, Workforce Intelligence, and Marketing. Students from any major are encouraged to apply.

The internships are designed to provide mentorship, training, and opportunities to develop new skills. Some interns will have specific job roles while others will have project-based responsibilities. Each intern will be matched to a specific department and assigned a direct supervisor. Interns will:

  • Attend Providence New Employee Orientation
  • Gain exposure to various departments within Providence through informational interviewing and/or job shadowing
  • Have opportunities to participate in surgical viewings and/or career exposure events if applicable
  • Be invited to intern workshops on topics such organization, professional development, how to get a job, and leadership skills, as well as guest speaker sessions. Interns are also invited to weekly group virtual calls to network and build a sense of community among peers.
  • Internships are offered at various times throughout the year and vary by location, department and duration. Paid internships are posted on our Providence jobs page.
