Career advice

Hello all, 

Hope you’re all well and having a better day than Birkenstock. 

I have recently been made an offer for a Treasury Analyst position at GS. I was just wondering if you guys believe there to be any realistic chance of later lateraling to a FO role or whether this would be unrealistic. 

For background, recently finished a Masters in Finance with a 4.0 GPA from a non-target (Russell Group) and a 3-week internship within Private Equity.

Would extremely appreciate any advice.
