Episode Details

What happens when a fintech founder faces a payments license deadline with exactly zero compliance staff and 30 days to fix it? In this episode, we break down why AML and compliance hiring has become the hardest problem in fintech right now — a razor-thin talent pool, sky-high agency fees, and regulatory consequences that can cost millions if you get it wrong. We walk through how one founder used OVI's two AI agents — Sora for sourcing and Milo for structured audio chat screenings — to hire two AML analysts and a compliance officer in under 30 days, without a compliance background and without paying agency fees. The math is striking: total recruiting spend under $200, versus $50,000–$75,000 in traditional placement fees. If you're building in fintech and compliance timelines feel impossible, this episode is your roadmap. We cover what modern compliance candidates need to demonstrate, why standardized audio screening reduces both bias and legal risk, and how OVI's Starter plan at $99 a month turns a seemingly impossible hiring window into a manageable process.
