I currently work as a Software Engineer at JPMorgan Chase on the Chase side (~2 years of experience). I would prefer to work a job that is more social and finance-related. I was specifically interested in Institutional Sales. It seems like I need an MBA or a finance work experience before breaking into that?
Does anyone have any advice for how to break into a social/finance/market-related career? Or if it is even feasible?
Thanks for reading
