Today we are celebrating International Women’s Day - an annual global celebration focusing on women's successes, rights and advocacy. And in recognition of this special day, we are sharing two incredible and inspiring stories from Fidelity.

Today, host Emily Anonuevo sits down with two outstanding Fidelity employees, Claire Fleming an equity research analyst and Reetu Kumra, a 15-year veteran in the financial industry, director of research, and portfolio manager. Claire and Reetu share their career journeys and what it is like to work within the financial industry. They discuss the obstacles they face as a woman in finance and the career advice they would give their younger selves. They also share what it is like working at Fidelity and what makes a career here at Fidelity unique.

For more, please check out the podcast we released earlier today featuring Michelle Munro and Kathryn Black looking at research and trends regarding women and their finances, addressing the gaps in women and wealth.
