60,000 Reasons to Rethink Talent – Why Financial Services Is the Next Tech Career Path
Is financial services telling the right story to attract the next wave of tech talent?
In this interview clip, Sabine VanderLinden, CEO of Alchemy Crew Ventures sits down with Ron Rock, Managing Director for Financial Services at JobsOhio, to discuss why the sector needs a branding overhaul.
Every year, over 60,000 students graduate from Ohio’s universities. Many are digitally fluent, ambitious, and ready to innovate. But most don’t view financial services as a space for cutting-edge technology – or a career that speaks to their skill set.
Ron shares how the industry can reposition itself to meet that challenge – transforming IT graduates into Fintech pioneers and coders into Insurtech innovators. The sector’s future will be written in APIs and AI, not spreadsheets.
Watch the clip to explore how Ohio is reframing financial services – and what it means for the talent pipeline.
