What are the responsibilities and job description for the Human Resources Business Partner Intern (Summer 2025) position at Tactile Medical?
Tactile Medical is offering a HR Business Partner internship opportunity for a student who is seeking to accelerate their professional experience and career trajectory in Human Resources (HR). Join a driven organization that is a compassionate leader in helping people living with chronic illnesses live better lives with at-home therapy devices.
In this 11-week internship program, our HR intern will join other interns to start out in our corporate headquarters campus in Minneapolis, MN for the first three days to learn from leaders across the entire organization. Our leaders will walk through how each of Tactile's collaborative teams identify patients, provide them with care, and ensure their lives are improved.

After the first three days on campus, the HR intern is paired with a mentor on the HR team to dive into their internship focus.

On the final day, all our interns will return to campus to present their internship accomplishments and celebrate on how they made a direct impact on helping people live a better quality of life.
