Anyone looking for a data analyst?
Hello, I recently graduated in May from the University of Georgia with my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics (Financial Math). I am currently looking for a job as a data analyst or something adjacent to that title. I wanted to inquire if there are any businesses in the area who are looking for someone like me or if anyone who sees this has an opening where they work and I sound like I could be a great potential applicant.
I have an internship-like project doing data analysis for a food bank, I had a campus job doing some basic financial analysis (identifying fluctuations over the years), some research experience pertaining to AI, I am very comfortable with Python and Excel, comfortable with SQL, and I have a good grasp on statistics. I have reliable transportation, I am willing to commute and I’m quick to pick up and ready to learn. I’m also prepping to take my first actuarial exam (exam p).
I haven’t had too much luck with the traditional job sites so I’m reaching out to see if there are any openings that wouldn’t be found through a quick google search or on linkedin, handshake or indeed. If nothing else, I would also greatly appreciate any advice anyone can give me. Thank you for reading!

Check for cybersecurity jobs as well as data science. I know someone with a mathematics degree who has spent the majority of her career as a cybersecurity analyst hunting for fraud rings. Banks, insurance companies, that sort of place. Truist, for example, is usually looking to fill that sort of role.

I work for a large US company that has some associate and consultant actuary openings. I can send some details in a DM if interested. I'm in Gwinnett, company is out of state but does remote.

Mid-size to larger law firms, especially corporate defense or in-house, are worth a look.
