"My aspiration to become an actuary began in high school, inspired by the profession's diverse career opportunities and the prospect of becoming a global citizen. During my search for universities, I found that HKU was one of the very few universities that was given the highest recognition globally by both SOA and IFoA. Receiving a full tuition scholarship made my dream into reality. From the first semester, I was given the opportunity to immerse myself in professional speaking and presentation, while learning to craft effective CVs and cover letters. My participation in the corporate mentorship program paired me with an experienced actuary, providing invaluable guidance that led to a full-time internship. The skills, experiences, connections, opportunities, and reputation I gained from HKU ultimately paved the way for my current role at one of the largest insurers in Hong Kong."
