The Resilient Fintech Segment: Despite Turbulence, Many Companies Continue to Hire
In 2024, the fintech segment experienced a significant slowdown in growth following a period of rapid expansion during the pandemic and its aftermath. The industry faced challenges, including the abrupt shutdown and unexpected acquisition of accounting startup Bench. However, despite these setbacks, many fintech companies are continuing to grow and expand their teams.
To better understand the current hiring landscape in fintech, I conducted an experiment a few months ago. I put out a call for fintech companies that were currently hiring, and within just over an hour, I received more than a dozen responses. Over the course of a few days, I heard from over 60 companies. The sheer number and quality of responses were surprising, even to someone like myself who regularly writes about this space.
Upon revisiting the list a few months later, it became apparent that while fintechs are still hiring, many of them do not have as many open roles as they once did. However, there are still plenty of open positions available, and some companies are even hiring for more roles than they were just a few months ago.
