Look at the banking sectorโฆ ๐ Weโre down to fewer than 5,000 banks today, from 15,000 in โ84.
Still, the workforce hasnโt shrunk.
Finding talent? Itโs a real task.
Weโre not just seeking tellers anymore.
We need Universal Bankers.
The jobโs not just about counting money.
Itโs about juggling multiple tasksโฆ.teller drawers, process loans, handle customer queries, and more.
Finding the right blend of technical acumen?
Yes, thatโs the real game.
But remember, posting a job and hoping the right candidate would find us is old school
Itโs about being proactive, not reactive.
Embracing tech is the new norm.
Itโs no longer just about Word or Excel. Itโs about AI, CRM, and advanced tech.
Once we have the talent, we need to nurture it.
Continuous learning, recognition, challenges, rewards โ thatโs how we retain talent.๐
So, is there a talent shortage in banking? Or do we need to redefine our strategies?
Itโs not about filling positions, but bridging the disconnect.
Letโs future-proof banking together!

Digging deep on banks is what I do.
