The CVS Caremark Corporate Summer Internship Program in Texas is located in our Irving Operation Center and other neighboring Texas locations. The Irving Operation Center houses many of the corporate functions of our business including Human Resources, Marketing, Communications, Finance, Legal, Sales, and Corporate Compliance. Our 12-story Irving Facility has just under 1,000 of our colleagues, a full state-of-the-art fitness center, as well as an on-site cafeteria. This facility is located right outside of the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and is a mere 15-20 minutes from the airport. It's close to great restaurants, shopping and hotels.
What will I be doing?
Interns generally work 40 hours per week for approximately 10 weeks, in a supportive learning environment, working closely with their supervisor on specific projects for the department.
The Corporate Internship Program contains other great activities to help you become familiar with
