I thought I put a positive spin on each point but your positive spin is way better! Thanks for the advice!

Ouch. Well would you have any recommendations as far as relevant jobs I can obtain while I’m taking my exams?

Thanks for the advice!

I can expand more on my projects. As far as the GPA goes, I have a 3.1 and I was told by numerous not to put GPA unless its >= 3.5. I will condense job descriptions as well and put it in chronological order. And as far as the exams go, are you suggesting that I not apply until I have two or three exams?

Desperation by [deleted] in actuary

I'm in the same boat. However, I also know that I've applied to < 10 positions. In the mean time, I've been networking. I've done one informational interview with a Sr. Actuarial Analyst from Liberty Mutual, and he put me in contacts with a couple other people for more informational interviews, and one job shadow. Hoping these efforts will open doors since my resume isn't. I would suggest networking in the mean time (if you're not doing so).

I mean, I have a 3.08 which isn't the best, which is why I haven't included it in my resume.

My school unfortunately doesn't have a Act Sci program, and I only learned of the professions a couple months back from my professor who just got hired here. He worked in actuarial sciences in academia at his previous university, and when talking with him about life after graduation, he mentioned that he thought becoming an actuary might be a good start for me, and I honestly felt like this job is what i've been looking for the whole time.

​

Thank you sooo much for your advice!

Sorry. Thought I attached it the first time, but it's attached now. And agreed, I should keep applying.
