Working abroad
As an actuarial student, there
are many opportunities throughout
the world. But, the competition
is stiff out there! Generally,
companies prefer to recruit locally
at the junior levels, so you may
need to gain a sound technical
base of actuarial expertise and
near qualification before being
considered for a job overseas.
But if you are determined to work
overseas earlier, then do follow
our advice, be persistent in sending
out those applications and don’t
get discouraged too easily.
Remember too that you need to research
your target market very carefully.
You stand a much better chance
of securing a first position in
a country where you don't need
a work permit. While the visas
and work permits themselves may
not be too difficult to obtain,
from an employer's perspective
they add a measure of red tape
and uncertainty.
For a junior candidate, this will
prejudice the employer in favour
of candidates who do not require
work permits, particularly when
there is plenty of supply locally.
An added difficulty is that you
will have to present yourself for
interview at your own expense should
you reach the shortlist. In rare
instances, companies may be prepared
to do first interviews by telephone
or video. However there are not
many companies prepared to go this
route at junior levels as skills
can usually be sourced (and interviewed)
locally.
Our winning formula of offering candidates and clients a quality
service has led to our rapid expansion. We presently have several
offices strategically positioned throughout the world, where we combine
local knowledge
with the benefits of extensive resources. We are committed to providing
a high quality, individualised recruitment service for every client
and candidate, focusing on the development of long term relationships.
