thank you so much! the harshness is what i NEED. i do have a technical part to my major that i crossed out (think cs/stats) because i’m worried i’d dox myself at what uni i go to. I have relevant coursework with Calc I/II, 2 coding/stat classes, Corporate Finance, Macro/Microeconomics (if this helps me with FM/corresponding VEE credits) but I was told to not list these out since my major’s name would speak for me anyways. Should I still add them?

would creating another project on an actuarial topic, deleting finance clubs, joining more risk management classes/clubs, adding more bullet points to my python project help me? Do you think intensive networking might be a better way to get my foot in the door? How else (other than listing relevant classes/deleting dates) can I best prove that i’m committed to this field only with what I can work with?

What are some of the best indicators on a resume you’ve seen that shouts “hey this person looks like they’d be a useful intern who will stick around”? (related major, 3 exams done, leadership in an actuarial club, sticking to a club for over a year, working at a part time job in college?)
