Hey, a Private Banking analyst with 0.5YOE here and I'm starting to realize it's not the role for me. I'm really interested in FinTech roles, but wondering how I can pivot to Fintech roles that typically require 1+ year of experience in IB, consulting, or SWE? Would love to connect with people in this industry to learn more about their roles!
