    I like how the few videos there are on TH-cam made by people practicing actuarial roles are professional and simplistic. That’s how you know you’ll be working with professional and intelligent individuals.

    It's great to see videos like this, there's so few actuarial content creators I can find. I'm starting an actuary Internship in life insurance and this makes me feel more comfortable with it.

    Yoooo.... you lookin real "IMPORTANT" & "STUDIOUS" in this video, that's very admirable (I love it 🤗🥰) I like when you do these type of videos because they really show growth in a person and, you're doing a really good job at handling "Life" right now!! Stay focused and try not to get too sidetracked.... you're really on a roll right now!!

    • @KeianaByfield
      @KeianaByfield  หลายเดือนก่อน

      thank you! :) hmm I'd say it's unlikely that you'd find part time opportunities - it's typically your standard 9-5 job. I've done a part time internship but that was offered to me because I was in school and planned to return full-time post grad

      all the music in this video is from Epidemic Sound! It's a paid subscription though; Hello Thematic also has free options.

      Like with any job, a position will go to the most qualified person - so I'd say look through job postings to see what skill sets employers are looking for. Your job will teach you how to apply your skills to what they need you to do

    Do you have to have a degree to get hired as an actuarial analyst?

    • @KeianaByfield

      Generally yes - I know one person that got a job without a degree but he's "exceptional" i.e. taught himself how to code, taught himself the material to pass actuarial exams etc.
