What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in actuarial analyst jobs.
- Progress toward CAS or SOA actuarial exams, typically one or more passed
- Bachelor's degree in actuarial science, mathematics, statistics, or a related quantitative field
- Proficiency in Excel, including advanced modeling and VBA

Tips for Your Actuarial Analyst Job Search
Lead your resume with exam progress
Employers screen for passed actuarial exams before anything else. List every passed exam by number and sitting date near the top of your resume. Candidates with the same degree get separated almost entirely by their exam count at the entry level.
Target job titles by exam stage
Job postings for actuarial analysts use different titles depending on how many exams you've passed. Search for 'actuarial student' if you have zero to two exams, and 'associate actuary' or 'ACAS' roles once you're further along. Matching title to stage gets your application in front of the right screeners.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists actuarial analyst openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Demonstrate Excel and actuarial software fluency
Your resume should name the specific tools you've used: Excel with VBA, SAS, R, Python, or vendor platforms like Milliman's MG-ALFA. Vague claims like 'proficient in data analysis' don't hold weight. Tie each tool to a real project or work output.
Prepare a case study for technical interviews
Many actuarial analyst interviews include a take-home or live modeling exercise. Practice building a loss development triangle or a mortality assumption from raw data before your interview. Being able to narrate your methodology out loud is as important as getting the numbers right.
Negotiate using actuarial salary surveys
The Casualty Actuarial Society and Society of Actuaries publish annual compensation surveys broken down by exam count, line of business, and region. Use the band for your exam stage and specialty as your anchor when discussing compensation, and reference it explicitly in the conversation.
Actuarial Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most actuarial analysts?
The companies hiring the most actuarial analysts right now include Strive Health, Uber, and GEICO, with the largest share of openings in New York, Illinois, and California, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Large carriers and national consulting firms consistently account for the bulk of posted openings.
How many actuarial analyst jobs are remote?
About 82% of actuarial analyst openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with remote options most common in health actuarial and predictive modeling roles. Property and casualty pricing and reserving positions are more likely to require at least some in-office presence, particularly at regional carriers.
How do you become an actuarial analyst?
You become an actuarial analyst by earning a bachelor's degree in a quantitative field, passing at least one preliminary actuarial exam before applying, and building technical skills in Excel and at least one statistical programming language. Most candidates start applying after passing exam one or two, then continue sitting for exams while working full time under an employer's exam support program.
How do you get hired as an actuarial analyst with little or no experience?
Getting hired with limited experience comes down to exam count and demonstrated technical ability. Passing even one preliminary exam signals commitment to the credential path and separates you from other new graduates. Internships in insurance or financial services, even in adjacent roles like underwriting or data analysis, also strengthen an entry-level application by showing familiarity with actuarial workflows.
What does the actuarial analyst interview process look like?
The actuarial analyst interview process typically begins with a recruiter screen focused on exam progress and technical background, followed by a technical interview testing Excel modeling, probability concepts, or a case study exercise. Final rounds usually involve a panel with practicing actuaries who assess both technical depth and your ability to communicate quantitative findings clearly to a non-actuarial audience.
Where can I find and apply to actuarial analyst jobs?
You can find and apply to actuarial analyst jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search for roles that match your exam stage, line of business, and preferred location, then apply directly to each listing that fits.
