The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the total number of unemployed Americans remains near the same level we saw at the peak of the Great Recession; and, close to 40 million have been impacted overall with reduced hours. To stay afloat, many have started a side hustle to make extra money and meet their financial goals. According to results from an Acorns survey of 2,000 Americans, 34% report they don’t make enough money to meet their financial goals. 66% said ensuring future financial stability is their key motivator for seeking work. 25% indicate they would like to build an emergency savings fund to be better prepared in the future.
Within a few taps, Acorns customers at every tier can find millions of full-time, part-time, and remote job opportunities, set job alerts, and explore custom career development content to support their financial wellness at no additional cost. By introducing Job Finder to its financial wellness system, Acorns is looking after the financial best interests of the up-and-coming and removing a main barrier to its customers achieving their money goals.
