The actuarial profession is often highly rated in terms of compensation, stress levels, and overall job satisfaction. Here's a chance to talk to an actuary, ask him about the profession, and find out if this might be a good fit for you. For those that attended the first session, this one will dive deeper into company versus consulting and life insurance versus property and casualty insurance, with more focus on the day in the life for each type of actuary. As before, please bring questions!You may also find BeAnActuary.org to be helpful.Next Friday, October 18th, 2024Math/Psych 4011-2:30, come before or after class!Free Pizza!
