Recruiters won't touch EL typically, especially not job changers. They're otherwise a decent route. The day you get your first credential is the day they won't leave you alone. I've found indeed works best in Canada, followed by LinkedIn. Glassdoor and monster are bleh. Actuaries that pass exams and touch computers are a dime a dozen. Your alternate background can be an advantage, especially since you're passing exams. Use it to highlight your other skills.

Cillian is my bf posted:Thanks for the responses. I feel cautiously encouraged and now I know not to spend time with recruiters. I didn't think about how all the jobs would have just been taken up by recent grads but that seems so obvious now. I'd say yes continue if it isn't breaking your bank. Your employer will typically cover it once hired, but IMO the big concern with a job hopper is just that they're not serious and might bail as they get harder. More exams alleviates that. That said, it's in a spectrum. I started some years back now with 2 as a switcher. I'd be worried now about exam creep having pushed that up. I can guarantee some won't care and I'd say 2 is where most folks would start accepting you're serious, and 3 seals the deal. Definitely do not stop applying while that continues.
