Many companies are looking for interns who are self-starters and can work independently. While working in a team environment is also required as you collaborate with coworkers and mentors, Humana wants interns who can conduct independent research, examine the data, and make decisions. The interviewer asks this question to see that you can work independently and will not need to be closely supervised if hired.

Explain that you work well independently and work well with teams. The interviewer wants to hear that you can work in different types of situations but that you do not need close supervision.

"I am very comfortable working independently, but I also enjoy collaborating with others in a team environment. I do not prefer close supervision as I am confident in my skills once I learn something new. If I have a question or require assistance from my manager or mentor, I will not hesitate to ask them."
