The Resilience of Fintech: Opportunities Amidst Challenges
The fintech industry, once a booming sector during and immediately after the pandemic, faced significant hurdles in 2024. A notable example was the unexpected shutdown and subsequent acquisition of the accounting startup Bench. Despite a slowdown in funding, several fintech companies continue to thrive and expand their teams.
Curious about these thriving fintechs, I recently reached out to see which companies were hiring. Within just an hour, I received over a dozen responses. Over several days, that number grew to more than 60 responses from eager companies. Even as someone who regularly covers this industry, the volume and caliber of these responses were impressive.
Revisiting this topic months later, it’s evident that while hiring has slowed compared to the frenzy of previous years, many fintechs are still actively seeking new talent. Some even report more open positions now than they did a few months ago. Although TechCrunch isn’t a job board, this information could be invaluable for those recently laid off, fresh graduates, or anyone seeking a career change.
“The fintech sector continues to offer exciting opportunities despite recent challenges,” said an industry expert.
