I recently accepted my first position so I wanted to share my experience since I feel like all I ever see on here is people talking about how impossible it is to find a job. I think I am definitely a lucky exception but I figured I could spread some hope!
For context, I started applying mid July and I’m a career changer :)
I just wanted to shout out The Actuarial Nexus real quick for anyone looking for free/cheap exam prep or extra practice questions.
I am a die hard TIA person but when studying for SRM, I just couldn’t get it and felt like they put a lot of focus on topics that most likely would not even be tested. (Still love you TIA)
I switched to The Actuarial Nexus only last week and completed all their available practice problems. I didn’t do their learn portion so I can’t speak on that portion. But the questions are worded so similarly to the exam and they completely follow the syllabus. They also give fun analytics. The explanations behind answers were so helpful and I was able to pass SRM being completely lost just 7 days ago.
So thank you, you saved me!
I am going to start applying to roles when I (hopefully) pass P in July. I want to make sure my resume is ready immediately! As a career changer, any and all advice is wanted!
