Sell-side to buy-side happens all the time...it's one of the exit ops for sell-side research analysts.

Switching sectors could be difficult, especially if you spent some time already covering a single sector. Maybe in the very early stages you could try and move around, but I don't see something like a 3rd year Healthcare associate moving to work under a Financials analyst.

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
