HOUSING ASSISTANCE

Based on location of assignment, Johnson & Johnson offers housing assistance to interns who live more than 50 miles from their work-site location. This housing assistance includes options for subsidized rent in a fully furnished apartment close to the work-site location, or a stipend payment for you to use at your discretion.
