Even<br \/>\nthe slightest thoughts of entering the interview room give us chills! It indeed requires<br \/>\na lot of hard work to excel in something, and the same goes for an interview as well.<br \/>\nBut unnecessarily worrying about something is not the solution. It&amp;#39;s like wandering in<br \/>\na jungle with no sense of direction.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Get A Professional Certification in Fintech By Imarticus Learning &amp; S P Jain Global Management\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5g54jie8m1s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In the <a href=\"https:\/\/imarticus.org\/blog\/ram-gopal-ceo-barclays-india-speaks-about-the-growing-fintech-industry\/\">fintech industry<\/a>, an interviewee is supposed to have a good understanding of<br \/>\nnot only the financial but also a technical domain. Following is an approach that will<br \/>\nhelp you guide in the preparation for a fintech interview.<\/p>\n<p>Step 1:<\/p>\n<p>Be very clear with the requirements including the necessary and preferred<br \/>\nqualifications in the job description. If not enough information is available, conduct<br \/>\nresearch about the company and the job requirements.<br \/>\nFinancial technology is a vast domain, hence a clarification about the job role is a<br \/>\nmust!<\/p>\n<p>Step 2:<\/p>\n<p>Make it a habit to follow the news every day to stay updated with the ongoing<br \/>\nchanges in the fintech industry. Follow online portals dedicated to fintech and make it<br \/>\na habit to practice different types of questions every day.<br \/>\nBe thorough with the basic concepts pertaining to fintech. Pay more attention on the<br \/>\npractical aspects and how it can be applied as a solution to the real-world problems.<\/p>\n<p>Step 3:<\/p>\n<p>After the first two steps are done, there comes the time to go deeper into the actual<br \/>\nconcepts. A good understanding of technology domains such as blockchain,<br \/>\ncryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, machine learning, virtualisation is a must.<br \/>\nConcerning the finance domain, a good knowledge relating crowdsource funding,<br \/>\ntraditional banking, insurance, budgets are highly appreciated.<br \/>\nHaving a practical experience along with the theoretical knowledge serves as an<br \/>\nicing over the cake.<\/p>\n<p>Step 4:<\/p>\n<p>During the interview, an interviewee should portray an inherent willingness to adapt<br \/>\nto the changes according to the needs of the organisation. There should be a zeal in<br \/>\nthe eyes of the individual to <a href=\"https:\/\/imarticus.org\/blog\/what-are-the-advantages-of-learning-fintech\/\">learn about fintech and its applications<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Step 5:<\/p>\n<p>A resume is vital for any job role as it is the first impression offered to an<br \/>\norganisation about an individual. So, make sure that you have an effective resume<\/p>\n<p>that suits the requirements of the job well. Also, quote work experiences from your<br \/>\nresume relating to the fintech role you are applying for.<\/p>\n<p>Step 6:<\/p>\n<p>Apart from the work experience, ensure that you have valuable certifications relating<br \/>\nto the fintech field. It is very important for a newbie who is about to enter the job<br \/>\nindustry.<\/p>\n<p>Step 7:<\/p>\n<p>Refrain from being a jack of all trades but master of none. It is impossible to know<br \/>\neverything about something. So, it does not matter if you do not know about<br \/>\neverything in the applying domain. But make sure you have relevant skills to perform<br \/>\nthe required operations if selected for the applied role in the fintech domain.<\/p>\n<p>Fintech abbreviated as financial technology requires people to have a good and clear-cut\u00a0understanding of the financial and technological fields. When it comes to job<br \/>\nopportunities in the industry, it is vast. Since it is related to both the finance sector<br \/>\nand technological sector, there is a need for developers, skilled technical<br \/>\nprofessionals and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/imarticus.org\/Professional-Certificate-Course-FinTech\/\">cybersecurity experts<\/a><\/strong>. An individual having a good understanding<br \/>\nof banking, ledgers and currency management is also required. Hence, it is a field of<br \/>\nnumerous applications and opportunities that calls for a really good understanding of<br \/>\nthe job roles and relevant concepts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Prepare for a Fintech Interview Interviews and nervousness come hand in hand.
