In tech and want to go back to banking. Need advice.
Hi all,
In summer of 2018, I was in a markets-focused role as an intern. I thought it was an OK experience but I still went through recruiting in August-October to check out other options.
I made the decision to do tech, specifically a mix between doing data science and consulting. I started about two months ago and I am really regretting on leaving banking.
I honestly played myself and I'm unsure of what to do at this point. I'm pretty miserable in my current role. While many of my peers in banking have started to wrap up their training and certifications, I feel lost and behind since I'm not doing any of that right now.
Can anyone shed some light on my situation? Should I apply to a bunch of job openings now meant for college grads? I'd appreciate any and all help. I don't know how bad my situation is and I don't know what to do.
Hey galax7, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I am sad to say, but this thread is lonely, so thought I'd post in here to try and help out. Some potential topics that might help:
I hope those threads give you a bit more insight.
Bump.
From your post it does not seem clear why you are feeling this way - Can you share more on why you think this was not a good decision? Is it day to day work, progression opportunity, culture, or something else?
Objectively speaking - most new roles take anywhere between 3-6 months for someone to settle in - so there might be a chance that you are confusing "regret" with a very normal "adjustment / settling in period"
However, if you are sure you would be better off in finance, its early days - little damage to your career if you choose to move back.
