Hey Data Geek.

Another week, another list of positions/hiring manager combo. But before starting to share the positions, I wanted to answer a question from one of you:

My friend: You can use the amazing experience you have gained inside the Insurance company. Perhaps analyze from your perspective public Insurance companies out there, and make your own recommendations. Or perhaps, analyzing the Insurance market. Your industry knowledge is more critical than you think. I wrote about this here.

The sky is the limit here. Insurance is a very interesting industry to be part of, and the knowledge there is very very valuable, but if you still want to make that transition, here is some advice:

• Read financial publications but with strong opinions. One of my favorite ones is Money Machine Newsletter 

• Follow interesting people in this space: Tanay Jaipuria (his breakdowns about Instacart and Klaviyo S-1s are amazing), Jack Raines and his Young Money newsletter, Mario Gabriele and The Generalist; and many more

• Get the fundamentals: Investopedia is a great resource for this

The sky is the limit here, my friend.

Back to business.
