Fixing Employee Retention in Banking
Presenter: Jared Morris
As 2019 begins, one thing should be top of mind for community banks and credit unions. How will financial institutions fill the talent gap this year?
Nationwide, America’s leading business schools are seeing drops in students focusing on finance and consulting. Furthermore, the U.S. unemployment rate dropped to 3.9 percent last year, which is the lowest rate in nearly two decades. The tighter supply of labor means community banks and credit unions will have to think strategically to fill valuable positions with young talent and retain existing employees.
Join Jared Morris, Senior Credit Officer at Peoples State Bank, as he walks through methods to attract the top talent to your institution and keep them there. He’ll draw from his experience recruiting college graduates who are vital to the success of Peoples State Bank.
