Introduction: New User Transitioning into Finance
Hi all,
Currently, I am a sales professional within the corporate training industry, and looking to transition into financial services. I was an Art History major, but took courses after graduation to pursue my interest in finance. My educational background isn't ideal for a career in financial services, but I hope graduating Summa Cum Laude, taking some finance courses, and utilizing my alumni networks will help my case.
Over the past year, I've been narrowing down my area of interest. Lately, I've been looking at entry level roles within Asset Management, preferably off-cycle analyst programs . I have multiple applications into one big bank and a family office; I have contacts at both. I plan on using WSO as an educational resource for information on career paths, training programs, interviews, and lingo.
Thanks,
L
