Hello David. Love your videos. May i request you to do video on the New product approval process as part of risk management. Thank you.

[@Risk-Doctor]

Thanks for this positive feedback, glad you liked this one. I don't usually do videos on demand, but we record occasions where I'm already speaking at a conference or seminar. This means it's unlikely that I'll be covering your suggested topic in the near future, sorry.

[@lvarghese100]

Sir, can i request you to do one video very specific to health care risk management

[@Risk-Doctor]

Thanks for this suggestion Litty. I'm not an expert in healthcare risk management, so I can't do this, sorry. Also the videos posted here are intended to be generic - useful to everyone! Sorry that I can't be more helpful in meeting your specific request.

Hi Risk Doctor, I was wondering how you believe a university student who wants to get into risk management can best differentiate himself from other students applying for the same job. I am currently second year and have applied for internships in risk management, I was wondering what else I could do, and some key skills or attitudes I should work on develop to allow myself the best chance of successfully getting into, and performing to a high standard in this career. Thank you for all the free information you put out, it's invaluable.

Hi. I'm pleased to hear that you're interested in a career in risk management. Internships are good, but they are hard to get into. You need first to think about what type of risk management interests you - there are many different aspects. You might pursue project risk management, or financial risk, reputation, environmental, business continuity, insurance etc. This decision will influence your next step. Once you've made that decision you should look for an "ordinary" job in that field, so that you understand the drivers of risk in that particular domain. Then help your colleagues to identify and manage risk in that area, before aiming for a specialist risk role. I hope this is helpful, and I wish you success in your future career.
