In Finance, we’re witnessing experienced and skilled members of Canada’s tech community transitioning away from traditional banking projects.

These candidates are following their passions and pursing careers that enable them to work with the ‘coolest’, most exciting technologies. Financial institutions like RBC (with RBC Ventures), Scotiabank (with Digital Factories) and CIBC (with Live Labs), are attempting to overcome this drain on talent by offering opportunities to accelerate banking innovation.

However, with financial technology becoming a less attractive career to pursue, opportunities are far less – leading to reductions in available talent, diversity, and specialist skills, stunting the FinTech markets further development.

At Caspian One, in collaboration with the our clients and selected partners, we are working to change how FinTech’s engage juniors. We believe the next-gen of talent will be hit the hardest from Covid and the recession.

We have a fantastic network of SMEs, who are crying out to help and share their knowledge. This new ‘future talent model’ directly competes with typical consultancy pools but gives so much more. Longer term commercial exposure, direct supervision with mentors, SME practical training from the ‘best-of-the-best' along with incentives that covert juniors to permanent staff.

Ultimately, we are trying to show compassion for FinTech juniors and the companies stunted by a lack of available talent – listening to their needs, comprehending their challenges and working with them to craft a viable solution.
