Need Advice - Recent MBA graduate with a finance focus

Hello,

I am a recent MBA graduate with a finance focus. My finance experience is limited to a treasury internship and am hoping to get my foot in the door in the finance function. My pre-MBA experience (2 years) is in project management, corporate training and organizational development. I am seeking financial analyst/associate level positions.

Any advice for a career switcher like me in this economy?

Thanks!
