Advice for securing graduate scheme
Hi all.
I’m a recent graduate from the university of Warwick with a 2:1 in maths and physics. I’ve been interested in becoming an actuary for a couple of years, but have had no luck with applications. I graduated in January this year, and got to some assessment centres last October, but was rejected. I’ve little formal work experience and am struggling to get retail experience at the minute, and have no coding ability. I have a couple of months before actuarial schemes open again. What would my time be best spent doing? Should I pay out of pocket (ask my parents for financial help) to pay for an exam and try to pass it in the September sitting, and develop Python/R skills, or would my time be better spent trying to get any work experience I can get my hands on?
