Career Change Advice

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to make a drastic career change. For reference I graduated uni with a Film degree but I do not want to pursue film as a career and would rather make a change into investment banking and would like to know what would be a viable option for me to make this change considering my lack of education regarding this field.

About Me:

  • 25 Years Old
  • Based in London
  • Small portfolio of Investment - Used the money from my maintenance loan.
  • Own a music licensing business
  • Started a video production company with uni friends

Libero blanditiis iusto et. Excepturi est et minima laboriosam. Magni dolorum velit eaque. Voluptatem reiciendis et iure aliquid molestiae beatae numquam.

Iusto officiis incidunt et aperiam numquam ea molestiae. Dolores quo qui non voluptate itaque omnis. Magnam autem eos atque temporibus sequi.
