    Finding an entry-level job

    I'm not sure what the best way is to go about finding an entry-level actuarial position. I don't ever find anything online through searches. I just graduated in May with a 3.79 GPA, 1 exam passed, and no internship experience. I definitely feel like I'm qualified for a position, but I don't know how to find en entry-level insurance job. I don't think I'd like consulting as much from what I know...I've already had 2 interviews with consulting companies and would really prefer to work for an insurance company. Any suggestions on what to do?

    Careerbuilder has some actuarial positions occasionally. You could use a recruiter such as DW Simpson.

    entry level job

    Your best bet would be to speak to a reputable actuarial recruitment company (preferably where the consultant has worked as an actuary) to guide you through your options and the thought process you should be going through.
