      2nd Answer Example

      "I studied your core values and found they greatly align with my own. I also love the fact you promote volunteerism within your employees- this is very important to me and I'm excited to learn even more about how to get involved. While I was very familiar with the UnitedHealthcare insurance package prior to applying, I didn't know much about Optum. As I applied, I was fascinated to read about the innovations you have brought in virtual care and prescription services to your members."
