I’m not from a finance background, but I’ve always been interested in working in finance. Do you think it’s realistic for someone like me to break into this field? I’ve been considering doing some courses to get the basics, but I’m not sure if that’s enough to get my foot in the door. Has anyone here made a similar transition? If so, what were the challenges you faced and how did you manage to land a role in finance without a direct background? Would love to hear some advice!
