    • @VLifeJournal

      I am not familiar with Dutch actuarial path so I can’t really comment about it specifically. In general, the popular global actuarial organizations are SOA and CAS. Then each country may have their own organization which leverage education system from SOA or CAS (eg CIA in Canada or MAA in US) or have their own education system (eg FIA in UK). You will need to do your research on what recognition agreements there are between the one in Dutch and other organizations, eg CIA accept SOA, CAS as well as FIA. Hope that helps.

    How relevant are the exams/math computations in every day actuarial work? (seeing how you work mostly out of Outlook, Excel, and PowerPoint)

    • @VLifeJournal
      @VLifeJournal Рік тому

      Good question. Actually Excel is still one of the common tools for math computations and data/stats analysis in the actuarial field. The math and problem-solving skills acquired through exams are still the bedrock of actuarial work. They enable actuaries to understand complex concepts, develop models, and make informed decisions. So, while the day-to-day might involve less math, the math knowledge underpins everything we do.

      Absolutely. Compensation is normally based on the number of actuarial exams you have and the experiences / performance. You can find salary discussion and references here SOA vs CAS - Part 2 | Salaries, Employers, Work Considerations and more ua-cam.com/video/miYUdN7TwfE/v-deo.html

    Hi random question but does actuary require lot of travelling??

    • @VLifeJournal
      @VLifeJournal Рік тому

      It depends on what roles you have. Actuaries can work in many fields and areas; if you work for consulting companies, you may need to travel. For my case, I rarely travel in the past 10+ years. You can find more information here www.vlifejournal.com/actuarial

    This is really cool and love the interactive aspect of being in the venture together! I like the idea of the skill gap analysis tool, especially in this era where people are open to pivoting in their careers and exploring different fields.

    This all sounds like great ideas. I guess coming from the financial planning background, the one that peaks my interest would be financial planning for students.

    Really insightful interview! Appreciate the advice on finding the right mentors and people who align on values, as well as the commentary around politics and authenticity. Also curious about the McKinsey article that had such an impact. Thanks Mei and Vy for sharing!

    Chị ơi, e 2k5 đang tìm hiểu về Actuary. Em rất thích những video chia sẻ về ngành của chị. Nhưng có một chướng ngại là em không nghe kịp tốc độ nói, chị có thể để phụ đề cho em dễ theo dõi không :((

    • @VLifeJournal
      @VLifeJournal Рік тому

      Hi em, em có thể chỉnh playspeed cho chậm lại khoảng 0.75x và theo dõi transcript hoặc là chọn Auto-translate qua tiếng Việt (chế độ có sẳn của UA-cam). Để theo nghề này thì kĩ năng tiếng Anh là quan trọng nên xem như rèn luyện tiếng Anh từ từ luôn :)

    Hey! I am right now I the path of choosing my future plans my career, and I had thought of being an actary after seeing my interests but As for now my biggest concern is that will A.I. take up the job of actuary in the future and all of my hard work would go useless?? Kindly confirm this doubt and concern..

    • @VLifeJournal
      @VLifeJournal Рік тому

      Our work is quite complicated and challenging so I would not have a concern. And my personal view is that it’s not AI who will take over your job but it’s people who know how to use AI will :) As a profession, we are already looking into AI/machine learning applications for our work.

      It will take all our jobs eventually, but in the meantime, don't stress & make the money while you can.
