- Feel welcomed, included and connected
- Have the tools, technology and access to communicate and work effectively
- Understand what it means to be a CareFirst employee and share a Difference Maker mindset
- Feel prepared for the days ahead, including completing important HR tasks (e.g., benefits enrollment), building a relationship with your people leader, and driving the continuous learning that will propel your success

Technology
You should expect to receive your CareFirst-issued computer the weekend before your start date.

Otherwise, IT representatives will assist during your orientation.
