As an actuarial and analytics recruiting firm, we offer the following services:
As an actuary, I get a lot of calls and emails from various actuarial recruiters. However, no matter how many times I’ve talked to them, I’ve been sticking with DW Simpson for several reasons. First, I feel like they know me and know what is best for me instead of asking me to jump from one position to another. I’ve gotten calls from recruiters who tell me that I’m a good fit to this new opportunity but that person does not even know what my background is. Second, before interviews, they always prep me and provide tips on how to engage with the interviewers. And after the interviews, they always follow up to see how the interviews went. However, I don’t get this kind of attention from other recruiters. Due to these reasons, I highly recommend DW Simpson if you are serious about changing jobs.
I was recruited by Paquita for a Chief Actuary role with DW Simpson. It was during this time that my level of engagement with Paquita started to take shape as she continuously demonstrated professionalism, streamlined communications as well as an excellence and commitment to her role that exceeded expectations. If you were looking for a dedicated well-polished, professional than look no further than Paquita. I would welcome the opportunity to work with her in the future.
DW Simpson was great to work with during my job search! They were very accommodating and incredibly patient with my requirements for a new job and didn’t pressure me to pursue positions that didn’t fit all my needs. They were there from start to finish – from initially presenting me the position to formally accepting, it felt great having DW Simpson “in my corner”. Without DW Simpson’s help, I’d be stuck at my old company/job that I wasn’t completely satisfied with. I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!
I cannot express what a blessing Patty and Jesus at DW Simpson have been to me! Having been with my current employer for 26 years, I knew I needed to move on, but was scared to put myself out there. They helped me see in myself all I had to offer and what an exciting time in my life this would be for me! Patty and Jesus were so different from the other recruiters in that they got to know me, listened to my needs and wants, and found jobs that would truly be a good fit for me. The other recruiters I had worked with seemed to be very much in it for themselves, trying to fill one specific role that had landed on their desk, regardless of whether it was the right fit. Patty and Jesus, however, truly tried to find the best candidate for the job, working for both the companies’ needing positions filled AND for me. The positions presented to me were impressive! They helped me branch out and apply for positions I would have never considered or realized I was qualified for: they helped me believe in myself and made the process of finding a job so much less scary. I am beyond excited to begin my new role and could not be more grateful to Patty and Jesus!
Patty Simpson and the rest of the great people at DW Simpson have been an important part of the success of the Actuarial Practice of Oliver Wyman, particularly our U.S. Property and Casualty practice. The keys to a successful actuarial consulting firm are smart actuaries who can be both innovative and communicate. DW has been able to identify those type of actuaries for us and then help us understand what it would take get them to join us – always in a professional manner.
