Lol... Underwriter just like that? I hear u. Probably u are talking about actuarial science not statistics. If u didn't study insurance or actuarial science, for u to be an underwriter u will need CIIN certificate and work experience in the industry.

Companies like microfinance banks et al. recruit people for entry level risk analyst positions, especially that of an underwriter, and preferably someone that studied accounting or statistics.

Nevertheless, prior experience matters.

@OP...there are a lot of opportunities in firms like audit firms also. Just apply and preferably back your course with certifications. It is well.
