New Entry-Level Actuary Shares Interview Tips!

For this week's video, I decided to do something different... I recorded an interview with JD, a career changer and member of the Actuary Accelerator Community who just secured his first actuarial position! We talk about how he started in a completely different field, and eventually switched to actuarial work. JD also shares tons of interview tips and talks about some of the skills that he had to develop in order to stand out from the competition. No matter where you are in your actuarial journey, you're going to find this video very insightful and motivational! And, you're going to learn so much about how to become an entry-level actuary. If you’re someone that has been putting this off for months or even years, NOW is the best time to get started. In the Actuary Accelerator Community, I provide resources that you can use to guide you on your actuarial journey! You will gain access to interview resources, resume courses, and so much more!
