Note: Consultation and mock interview in group are also welcome. You can invite some of your fellow classmates (also students of our Department) to form a group if you wish. Please indicate your preference and necessary information in your request.

Our students are equipped with a wide spectrum of knowledge and skills:

• data management, data analysis, statistical modelling;
• loss modelling, actuarial modelling; and
• ability to use software applications, such as VBA, spreadsheets, database management, R, SAS, graphics, etc.

Our Internship Programme can assist the employers by promoting their full-time/part-time/summer positions among eligible students, sending the employer resumes of interested candidates, and arranging interviews with the students selected by the employer. Recruitment activities normally begin two months or more prior to the expected start date for a position and students are placed on an ongoing basis, as offers of employment are made and accepted. It is recommended that the employer begins recruitment activities as early as possible to ensure a good selection of candidates.
