"Open the technology to 'prosper the world'", "Fintech Bank, walk before the change"... Open the recruitment website, and the advertising page of the 2019 school recruitment of commercial banks will come, making people fully feel their desire for Fintech talents.
As early as the end of August, the curtain of autumn recruitment in 2019 had been quietly unveiled. The reporter of Securities Daily found that nearly 20 large state-owned banks and joint-stock banks have taken the lead in the "talent competition" in 2019, combining several job search websites. As far as the recruitment of each head office is concerned, IT posts have been "first promoted" by many banks and become the first batch of head office recruitment posts released.
Head office of 20 banks
Main technology post
Compared with local branches and grass-roots posts, the school recruitment posts of bank headquarters are always more favored by students at school. Judging from the bank's enrollment announcement this year, financial technology posts are highly valued by all banks.
In terms of state-owned big banks, ICBC is the fastest in school recruitment, and its head office recruitment written examination has been completed. Among them, the Head Office's recruitment posts include the marketing management posts of the Internet Finance Department, which are mainly responsible for the implementation of the smart banking strategy and the overall planning of the development and management of the Bank's online finance business. China Construction Bank said in the recruitment announcement that new employees in computer, IT, communications and other professions have the opportunity to follow the post and exercise in China Construction Bank's financial technology subsidiaries (including all business groups) or branches' technology departments.
Bank of China has set up the position of information technology among the supervisors in the head office department. Bank of China said that, as a reserve of professional talents for the main business department and general management department of the head office, the management trainees of Xinke will be trained in institutions directly under the science and technology category for one year after being recruited into the bank, and will work in the head office according to the training situation. In addition, among the first batch of posts to be applied released by Bank of Communications, except for local management trainees, all of them are scientific and technological posts, such as system development, system management, etc.
In addition, for the powerful and dynamic joint-stock banks, they pay more attention to financial technology, so they have also tailored a variety of posts for new graduates in school enrollment. Securities Daily reporter checked the recruitment announcements of CITIC Bank, Industrial Bank, China Merchants Bank and other joint-stock banks, and found that "Head Office IT posts", "IT orientation students", "information technology" and other posts are everywhere. As of press release, there are 20 banks with science and technology posts in the recruitment.
In addition to the bank headquarters, local branches have also set up corresponding scientific and technological posts. For example, Guiyang Branch, Nanjing Branch and other local branches of China Merchants Bank have set up positions such as targeted students (financial science and technology direction), and put forward requirements and expectations such as "having IT/DT and other science and engineering professional background", "growing into financial science and technology talents familiar with banking business", and "becoming complex expert talents with sophisticated business and technology".
A mass loss of bank staff?
Fintech recruitment has just begun
In recent years, with the wave of financial technology sweeping the entire financial industry, the "sense of existence" of grass-roots employees is often brushed down by intelligent devices. The sensational stories of "angry resignation of basic tellers" and "collective exodus of bank employees" also followed.
However, in terms of the number of employees of listed banks, the total number of employees has indeed decreased. According to the 2018 China Listed Bank Analysis Report issued by the China Banking Association, the total number of employees of 32 A-share and H-share listed banks has decreased since 2016. According to the data of semi annual reports of listed banks in the first half of this year, the overall number of bank employees is still in a decreasing trend.
The insiders pointed out that there are many reasons for the loss of employees in commercial banks: first, the development of financial institutions such as Internet platforms has diverted some bank employees; Secondly, the pressure of performance appraisal and the decline of salary and treatment lead to the decline of employee attraction. In addition, the replacement of teller and other operating posts by downsizing and intelligent transformation of outlets has also reduced the number of grass-roots employees.
In this context, it is also expected that the Bank will vigorously "recruit people" in campus recruitment every year. As the future focus of many banks, financial technology talents have naturally become the main recruitment targets.
Generally speaking, due to the superior working location, benefits, development space and other aspects, the positions of the head office and directly affiliated institutions of the bank are often "hard to find". However, when recruiting technology posts, banks are generous. For example, the campus recruitment of ICBC Data Center (Shanghai) has reached 250 employees at one time. In addition, the number of employees recruited by the data center of Agricultural Bank of China and the credit card center of Minsheng Bank is about 100.
In addition, since 2015, six banks, including Industrial Bank, Ping An Bank, China Merchants Bank and China Construction Bank, have established financial technology subsidiaries, and banks such as Industrial Digital, Financial One Account, and China Merchants Bank Cloud Innovation have entered the battlefield. The corresponding talent gap can not be ignored, and "finance+IT" composite talents are more popular.
Taking CCB Financial Technology as an example, its 2019 school recruitment is expected to recruit 400 people; Among them, 60 people are recruited by the company headquarters, and a total of 340 people are recruited by the business groups in eight places, mainly for technical research and development, business development and general management positions. Industrial Digital has not announced the number of recruitment, which only refers to the recruitment of software development engineers, big data development engineers, network management engineers and other positions. As for job requirements, the candidate is expected to be a "2019 fresh graduate with a full-time undergraduate degree or above from 211 engineering colleges or key financial and science and engineering colleges", majoring in computer science or economics and finance.
"Although it is still at the stage of overseas investment, the financial technology position of financial institutions is the focus of attention", the reporter of Securities Daily interviewed Zhang, a recent graduate of the Information Institute of a financial university in Beijing. He said that the background of financial institutions and the advantages of computer specialty are his greatest advantages when he was employed. "Financial technology is definitely the trend in the future, and I hope to realize my own value from it".
