Move to investment banking from PMS

Hi guys, I'm working as an research associate in a mid sized pms with close to 1 year of experience. I'm appearing for CFA level 1 in nov, and want to shift to investment banking.

What do you guys think would be the openings for moving from pms to investment banking for my experience?

All guidance and help is appreciated. Thanks in advance 🙌
