Hey guys. I am an assistant manager in PSU bank. YOE- 5 yrs. I want to switch in tech sector. Have experience in Finance, Taxes, Administrative roles, simple data Analysis. I am learning SQL & Python. Thinking of going in Data Analyst or Business Analyst role. What do you guys think?? Am I on the right path. Or should I try for pure finance roles in companies like big 4s. Please share you opinion or experiences.

Around 10-11

I completely understand your situation. My partner worked in PSU bank as well and can only understand how pathetic the work culture and wlb is. Good luck. I would suggest you to take up few more courses on Sql and apply for Business Analyst role where business knowledge is required. There are lot of roles in NBFC, Banks and also a few in Big 4 where business knowledge is require along with a few technical skills to do cross selling and marketing analytics.

I would advise you to capitalise on your domain knowledge and try for functional roles in banks, the newer NBFCs or neo banks ..or even big 4 of IT companies with significant foothold in banking ( e.g Finacle-Infosys, BaNCS - TCS..or captive units of any foreign banks.
Once inside an IT company,it could be relatively easier to switch to pure tech roles than what you are attempting now.
Even if you crack interview on the basis of academics, they will lowball you saying 0 tech experience..
However if you switch to a functional role ina tech company, you can capitalise your knowledge and experience fully.

Wish you good luck.

Yes.. I have seen folks switch jobs with experiences on various CBS

What's reason of switching to tech sector?

Shitty work culture. No WLB at all. Less growth. Nominal pay.
