Program highlights include:

For the policyholder cash inflows, this includes how the deposits are recorded, reconciled and fed to our downstream actuarial models.
  • Mentorship: You will be assigned an Executive and peer mentor who will meet with you to discuss their knowledge and experience and provide you with guidance on your internship and career path.
  • Hands On Experience: You will be participating in projects that will give you a true understanding of the profession. The projects you will work on will contribute to your teams' and company goals.
  • Rotational Events: You will be invited to a series of interactive presentations in which key financial and accounting professionals throughout the company will provide an overview of their department and job duties as well as their experiences as an actuary. This will include exposure to General Accounting, Financial Reporting, Corporate Finance, etc.
  • Social Activities: Networking opportunities, Executive speaker series, community service events, and social outings.

What You'll Gain

  • Understanding of how accounting supports financial reporting, business operations, controls, and strategic decision-making.
