Fidelity is adding approximately 4,000 licensed representatives, technologists, and customer service representatives across its existing U.S. footprint and into dozens more over the next six months. Over half of these positions are expected to be filled by mid-year.
Despite the challenges of the pandemic, market volatility, and economic uncertainty, Fidelity's operating and financial performance in 2020 was one of the best in its 75-year history, as Fidelity experienced dramatic increases in new customers, call and trading volumes, and digital engagement. The company continues to help associates navigate these challenging times by evolving its benefits to provide offerings like a working caregiver subsidy, access to expert elder- and child-care coordinators, and more flexible work options. The company's year-end employee data showed the company's highest ever associate sentiment. To get more information or to apply to join the Fidelity team, visit https://jobs.fidelity.com.
