Q&A with a former
Summer Associate
2
Meet Yamila
Pfizer Background:
? 2018 Pharmaceutical Marketing
Summer Associate
? Currently: Pharmaceutical
Marketing Rotational Manager
Educational Background:
? MBA from NYU Stern School of
Business with specializations in
finance, marketing, and strategy
? Business Certificate from Columbia
University in finance and marketing
? BA from Columbia University in
philosophy
3
Q: What kind of professional background do
you come from?
“Prior to joining Pfizer, I was a management consultant affiliated with
my firm’s marketing, sales, and services practice working across
several industries. Subsequently, I moved in-house to be a strategic
communications and change management practitioner in the food and
beverage consumer products industry.”
4
Q: What made you choose Pfizer?
“I was immediately drawn to the company’s strong
culture and deep sense of purpose of putting patients
first, which has evolved to delivering breakthroughs that
change patients’ lives.”
5
Q: What advice do you have on getting comfortable with the
business for MBA students who do not come from a
Pharmaceutical background?
“I think the best way to learn and become comfortable with the
pharmaceutical industry is full-on immersion. Being around
individuals highly conversant in the subject matter, which is what
I experienced throughout my summer internship, allowed me to
develop a firm understanding of the industry and company.”
6
Q: What was a memorable project that you
worked on during your time as a Summer
Associate?
“One of the projects I worked on as a Summer Associate was that of a
caregiver-patient video testimonial. It was an absolute highlight to be on
site with both the caregiver and patient to hear their stories and learn of
the patient’s experience with one of Pfizer’s treatments. It brought to life
the meaning behind our collective body of work.”
7
Q: What is your favorite part about working at
the New York Headquarters?
“My favorite part about working at NYC Headquarters is the wealth of
knowledge. There are deep subject matter experts across all functional
areas, and it is wonderful to be able to collaborate with so many of them on a
regular basis.”
