Our Stories

“ I started at HCSC on February 12, 2007 as a temporary employee. I was 19 years old and started the day my daughter turned 4 weeks old. I began as a CA in BlueCard Central, in the first “off the street” new hire class they had ever had. I moved my way up from Customer Advocate, next to Customer Advocate Specialist, to Inter-Plan Business Specialist and on into people leader roles: Supervisor, Sr. Supervisor and Sr. Manager. All these roles have been in BlueCard Central.This company has provided me opportunities I wouldn’t have had otherwise.

16 years later, that “big break” is my career. Surround yourself with those who have similar goals, be a sponge and soak in all the information you can and don’t let statistics define who you are. For the opportunities this company has provided me and the support my mentors have given me, I will forever be grateful. ”
