Regretful Non-Finance Grad Seeks Entry Level Finance Employment

Hi,
I recently graduated with a degree in Broadcast Production and hate my current job. I want to make more money and am interested in financial services. I have been taking an intro Finance class online and want to break into either investment management or trading. Is there a solid way to get a decent entry level job in either of these fields? Any advice for finding positions in this competitive field?
