I had the pleasure of having Ruth come on-board as an HR Intern for the Talent Acquisition team at Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center during her last year of undergraduate study. Ruth understands all task given to her, she is a quick learner and an active listener. She is always willing to learn a new task given to her, is detailed oriented, punctual, and very professional.
