The annual Global Job Confidence Index 2021 offers insights into the minds of the financial services talent market. Understand their confidence in the economy, job security, comp & bonus, and whether motivation factors have changed.

​A recent Forbes feature, in partnership with our parent company Phaidon International, raises prominent questions: what are the major factors driving the talent challenge and how can financial services organizations implement key strategies to weather the approaching talent storm?

​At Selby Jennings, we value initiatives that advance diversity in Financial Services around the world. We believe in our role in driving gender equality and actively providing women with equal opportunities for career progression. With this year's theme ‘Choose to Challenge’, we're inviting you to join us in celebrating female achievements and choosing to challenge the status quo.

​Rather than making a New Year’s Resolution this year, perhaps more can be achieved by reflecting on the challenges of 2020 and how those experiences will shape 2021 and beyond.

​How will our choices today affect the future of work? Which path should be taken to ensure work-life balance? At Selby Jennings, these are the questions that have defined our daily conversations with clients, candidates, and our global workforce. Our new report, "The Work-Life Rebalance", offers business leaders another perspective before setting the cornerstone.

​Understand the way workplaces in banking and financial services will change post-pandemic. As health is emphasized, remote work normalized, and inclusivity slowly improved, how will this affect talent?
