    I like how the few videos there are on RUclips 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.

    As someone who just started working towards pursuing an actuarial science degree after being out is school for some years now, this vid was a good find. Really insightful stuff. Combine that with my guess you’re a fellow Jamaican, I’m subbing for more of this content. Lol

    I've been interested in the Actuary field for a couple of months. I'm just afraid of all the exams you need to pass. It's so much studying, but the money is very high.

    • @KeianaByfield
      @KeianaByfield  4 месяца назад

      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.

      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.
