    As someone who works in the tech/software side of Insurance at one of the worlds largest insurers, where I never get to interact with Actuaries - we usually just treat them as a "black box" that produces spreadsheets 😂 - it's great to see this side of the business! Thanks for sharing with such specific terminology and depth Paige! Seems you're getting on tremendously well, which is great to see.

    • @PaigeY

    Hi Paige! Been watching your videos since your first year in uni while I was also in my first year. Like yourself, I am also on a graduate programme now. And you guessed it, been working from home as well :(
    Working from home from the get-go is undeniably very challenging but watching your videos makes me feel like I have a buddy who's learning and growing with me! Love your content, keep it up!

    Paige,
    I have been following you since the start of your Cambridge journey.
    You have come such a long way.
    You're a strong, confident, hard-working young lady and everyone can see it.
    Your attitude towards your new working life is one that many should strive for.
    I appreciate you looking after yourself and it is pleasing to hear that your colleagues and family are looking after you too.
    I am sure, in turn, you are looking after them.
    Keep up the wonderful content; however, I am sure everyone understands if a vlog is published later than your desired scheduled times.
    Kind Regards,
    Lisa ☺️

    So cool Paige! I am a maths graduate and just started working as a Process Developer in a big well-known company. I can relate to you so much! Haha. But we get to choose if we work at home or at the office, we can do both! A few days in the office and a few days at home. That’s really nice!

    This video was so great to see but it makes me feel so sad for myself:( I also graduated in 2020 but my home situation means I wouldn’t be able to hold up a job working from home I just about have a laptop let alone a quiet space that I could work in all day so I haven’t been able to get a graduate job yet which is really really sad for me and it’s ruined my whole university ending! Hopefully things get a bit more back to normal soon so that I can get a proper grab job

    I've been working from home since last March and it's getting like groundhog Day. Having a routine and taking a break from work is so important - the temptation to switch the laptop on at weekends can be very strong and should be resisted. Good to see you do the right thing and take a proper lunch break and get some fresh air.

      If you do end up reading it (really recommend) the second book is the slowest but it's worth getting past it to the other books
      But also another good book series is Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss but a warning, the third book isn't out yet and it's been 10+ years since the last one was released with no release date in sight. Still one of the best book series I've read tho

I don’t want to do actuarial exams and it makes me think the role or a risk analyst might be too technical/mathematical. Do you find you use actuarial models and skills whilst working in your role??
