If you’re looking for a way to bring young talent in the door to stay, one strategy I highly recommend is to offer some form of student loan repayment assistance. It’s something we’ve tried at ABA with great success, and in my view, it’s one of the ways banks can distinguish themselves as some of the best employers in the job market. If your bank isn’t offering a student loan repayment option, I encourage you to explore the possibility with your HR director. These programs can be tailored in virtually any way to support your organization’s talent acquisition and retention strategy. The reality is that many young people today are graduating college with the equivalent of a small mortgage worth of student debt. That is a tremendous burden, and stepping up to help your workers tackle this debt can set your bank apart both in recruitment and retention. Beyond offering perks, talented professionals also need ample opportunities to advance within the organization, hone their skills or explore new areas of interest. ABA offers a wide range of online training, continuous learning and certification programs for bankers at all levels of their careers. (You can check out all of these offerings at www.aba.com/ DevelopTalent.) We also support up-and-coming bank talent through our Emerging Leaders Open Committee and our Email Rob at nichols@aba.com.
