I want to move from Google to the Finance Industry

Hey WSO,

I'm graduated from Berkeley in 2014 with a degree in Economics, 3.0 GPA. I did a two month internship at UBS after graduating assisting the PWM department. I've been working at Google doing an entry level job assisting our SalesReps since September.

This is the only work experience I have and coupled with a less than steller GPA, I feel like my shot at getting into finance is pretty slim.

Any advice is appreciated. Should I apply for B-School, write the CFA L1, or what?
