RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – Good news for job seekers. Fidelity Investments says it is looking to hire 2,000 people – including 100 in the Triangle – for a variety of openings.

Declaring “We’re opening for business and hiring,” Fidelity announced the recruiting news early Monday.

Jobs include:

  • Financial consultants
  • Licensed representatives
  • Technologists

“These new roles will support and further strengthen our ability to deliver the best customer experience in the industry,” a company spokesperson says.

Fidelity operates a large campus in the Triangle with more than 3,000 employees.

The hiring comes as the world grapples with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which has triggered the loss of more than 12 million jobs in the US alone.

In addition, Fidelity, with its strong brand and differentiated client value, has seen significant business growth from investors opening new accounts,” said Kathy Murphy,
