Allianz Life

Actuarial Intern

May - August 2023 • Minneapolis, MN

What I liked

This internship was a phenomenal experience. The interns received meaningful, challenging, and important work that was very similar to what full-time entry-level actuaries do. Not to mention that the interns live in a hotel all summer for free!

What I wish was different

Advice

Become familiar with Allianz before the internship to jumpstart your success. There are resources available on the website to learn about the company/products that would help you stand out as an intern.

Actuarial Intern

I wish the actuarial work was more technically involved and stimulating.

Advice

Do step-ins with as many different departments as possible.
