eFinancialCareers For Recruiters

The Most Comprehensive Financial Services Taxonomy Ever Built

Release Notes 

Overview

We’ve redefined how Financial Services hiring works using our model trained on 25 years of candidate, customer, CV, job & activity data. Our new financial services classification goes deeper than any other platform, mapping the industry the way it truly operates. From bulge-bracket banks to sovereign wealth funds, reinsurance to regulators, we’ve structured every part of the ecosystem to make hiring faster, smarter, and more precise.

Why We Built It
Most job platforms treat Financial Services as a single category, a handful of catch-all terms like Banking or Insurance. But the reality is far more complex. Employers need to target specific sub-sectors, and professionals expect roles that reflect their expertise. This release is our answer: a taxonomy that mirrors the industry itself, not a simplified version of it.

What’s New

  • Over 25 core sectors and 100+ sub-categories designed to capture every part of FS, from capital markets and private equity to digital challengers and regulators.
  • Powered by AI and built in collaboration with Financial Services experts, our taxonomy reflects how firms operate today across traditional, alternative, and fintech landscapes.
  • Designed to grow with the industry, supporting new sectors like embedded finance, digital assets, and sustainable investing.
  • We’re launching first within Candidate Search, starting with the top 550 companies now mapped to our taxonomy. Many more will follow as we expand coverage across the full market.
  • The taxonomy will soon power job posting and job search too, improving targeting and the quality of applications you receive.
What It Means for You
