The sector faces a real challenge: even with salaries of up to R$96, it is unable to attract new professionals. The demand for qualified leaders is only increasing!
Did you know that some sectors in Brazil, even offering very high salaries, face serious difficulties in filling their vacancies?
This phenomenon of scarcity of labor seems to defy the logic of the job market. After all, who would refuse an offer of almost R$100 per month? The reality, however, is much more complex.
Large corporations are fighting real battles to retain their professionals, especially in the financial sector.

But why, with so many opportunities and such attractive salaries, are companies having so much difficulty?
According to a recent survey by Robert Half, senior management positions in the financial sector can earn up to R$96 per month.
However, these numbers, which for many seem like a distant dream, are not enough to convince professionals to change jobs.
Most finance leaders are increasingly resistant to outside offers, preferring to stay in their current positions.
This is largely due to to aggressive counterproposals from companies, rapid internal promotions and the transfer of executives to new areas within the company itself.
High salaries do not guarantee a change of job
According to a study carried out by the consultancy PageGroup, 80% of finance professionals are satisfied with their jobs and do not plan to change companies, even when faced with new offers.
The reason?
Often, upon receiving an external proposal, these executives are quickly approached with better conditions at their current companies., which makes changing jobs less attractive.
Another factor that contributes to the retention of these professionals is rapid growth within the companies themselves.
With promotions and internal movements, many leaders find opportunities for growth without having to look for alternatives outside.
These practices have worked well, but there is still a shortage of qualified professionals that worries the market..
Talent shortage and growing demand in the financial sector
Despite successful retention strategies, Financial companies continue to face strong demand for skilled talent.
The current scenario of labor shortages shows that even with most professionals remaining in their positions, many vacancies remain open and forecasts indicate that this situation will worsen in the coming months.
According to data from Michael Page's 2024 Compensation Study, the demand for qualified financial leaders is on the rise.
These professionals are essential for companies to navigate an unstable economic scenario and, in addition to understanding numbers and spreadsheets, need to have a strategic vision to guide their companies with confidence.
The market is increasingly looking for leaders who combine technical expertise with the ability to lead teams and make strategic decisions.
Will the financial market in Brazil be able to meet the growing demand for qualified leaders, or will we see even more strategic positions opening up, even with impressive salaries?
Companies want masters to tighten the screw, they want languages that only say, come down, come up, stop. HR agencies are not aware of the real scope of work, CTRL C, CTRL V.
Unions pass salary levels to the HR departments of companies that consult them, creating a network of low salaries and high scales, which hinders salary negotiations between professionals and the company. HR departments receive bonuses for hiring professionals with low salaries. That's the problem. There are professionals, but odd jobs end up being more advantageous.
What do you need to study to work in this area?
And the Banks are going against this shortage, as they put maximum pressure on their professionals and force resignations on those who are entitled to RETIREMENT…
Shame !!!
Just qualify those interested.
