What channels do financial services recruiters use for sourcing candidates?

What channels do financial services recruiters use for sourcing candidates?

Companies within the Financial Services sector heavily rely on their Website/Careers Site (90%), as well as Professional Social Networks (87%) such as LinkedIn, for finding skilled candidates. Employee Referrals (84%) is also a widely used sourcing channel in the sector

There is a reliance on in-house Banking and Finance sector recruitment teams turning to agencies for help in filling their vacancies, which grew from 67% in 2023 to 76% in 2024. The cost associated with this approach can have a major impact on a company’s cost of hire and may not always be the most effective use of spend. Financial sector applicant tracking systems (ATS) offer a solution, which is more affordable in the long run, also giving hiring organisations more control over their candidate management.

Which sourcing channels work best in financial services?

When looking at how Financial Service sector recruiters are succeeding with talent attraction, the Sourcing Quadrant provides an easy-to-understand picture. The Website/Careers site is the top channel by usage and delivers both good quality and quantity of candidates. A good careers site design and content should provide a stellar experience through every step of the recruitment journey for the best candidate engagement.  

Other channels, such as Events, CV Databases and Social Media tend to be less successful in providing quality and quantity of candidates.
