Overview
As part of CFA Institute Global Career Month, this webinar brings together senior HR leaders from major financial services and investment management firms to share how careers in financial services and investment management are evolving and what employers are looking for in the next generation of talent.
Rather than focusing on job market predictions, this conversation centers on career strategy, skills development, and long-term growth. You will hear directly from the people responsible for hiring and developing talent across the industry. There will be three webinars focusing on the needs and challenges for employers in each region.
