Can you do a video on how to land internships. I don’t have any I. My area so they have to be remote and I’m having a really hard time trying to track some down.

Hi I am currently a 3rd year engineering student thinking of taking up actuarial science . Could you suggest what I should focus on first ? [I mean in terms of exams or excel or programming ]

Hi! I would recommend taking an exam first to see if you like the material and studying process, since you’ll have to take many exams as an actuary. If you take an exam and decide you do want to pursue actuarial science, then I’d suggest working on your coding and Excel skills. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching 😊

Hey Bella I’m a sophomore and switched my major to mathematics with a focus on actuarial science and a business administration minor. Like watching your videos, but I think it would be really beneficial to make a video critiquing the resume that got you your first internship. Thanks for reading.

Hi! I'm pondering on choosing actuarial science as a masters course in Hungary and your videos are very helpful. In your last video where you mentioned a few of your school projects, I think that was the most interesting one for me. To see what this field is really about. I would love more of that content (work or school projects)! Well, staying a subscriber anyway:)

I follow you from Turkey as an actuarial student. Unfortunately, in my country, this department does not receive enough attention and value. Actually, in one sense, this is an advantage. In addition to English, I am learning German and studying for actuarial exams. However, I took a break from school for a few years for personal reasons. Do you think it is a problem in the eyes of the business world to graduate from a 4-year undergraduate program in 6-7 years? What do employers think about this situation? I wonder about this. Thanks for the videos<3

Hi! Thanks so much for watching all the way from Turkey 😃 I think it is better to graduate with a degree than to not graduate with a degree if you want to pursue actuarial science, no matter how long it takes. When applying to jobs, I'd probably leave off the date you started your degree on your resume and only put on your graduation date. Hope this helps!

1:06 1. Most actuaries work in the insurance field 2. 3 main fields actuaries work in: life, health, property/casualties 3. Actuaries on a quarterly basis & life insurance is repetitive while health insurance is heavily regulated while consultant actuaries often work long hours 4. Should learn coding to manipulate data & Excel 5. Finance, business law, accounting, advanced mathematics (calculus) all are a part of actuaries’ jobs 6. Actuaries work more with insurance rather than the technical/mathematical aspects of the field 7. Must take 10 actuarial exams 8. 2 organizations (SOA for life/health insurance and CAS for property/casualty) actuaries must choose from after taking 2 exams 9. Actuarial exams have very low pass rates :( 10. Actuarial science is a very narrow, niche field. 11. Actuarial science is a creative field in the way that new insurance product/calculation innovations can be discovered

Hi Andrew! Thanks so much for watching ☺ Congrats on your offer from RBC!! 🎉🎉 My reasoning to why I chose Allstate is pretty short - they are P&C (which is what I want to go into), they offer remote work options, have exam support, are a big company with a good reputation, and the people have been great. I also felt like the interviewers saw what I can bring to the table, and I appreciate that.

Hi Bella, I'm currently an undergrad finance major working as a finance and accounting intern, but I was recently exposed to a workshop hosted by the actuarial club I recently joined, and tbh it caught my attention. I want to explore more opportunities. Is there any advice you can give me on how to pursue actuarial science internships or something along those lines. I will be a senior this upcoming fall, so idk if it's too late to switch interests. Any advice would help!
@Bella-the-Actuary
@Bella-the-Actuary Ай бұрын
Hello! Let me start off by saying that plenty of actuaries didn't find out about the career path or start taking exams until after college, so it is not too late to switch. It's really great that you found the actuarial club - I'd recommend you keep attending! I would suggest applying for an actuarial internship the summer after you graduate, and tailoring your resume to show your actuarial skills (coding, classes, projects, etc). I would also highly recommend taking your first actuarial exam - either exam FM or exam P. Let me know if you have any other questions! 😊 Best of luck! 🍀
