Hi, I have an IT background and 3 years of work experience with TCS as a Salesforce developer. I am currently enrolled in a masters of global management degree with data science concentration. However, I am interested in working as a financial analyst in the finance sector. How can I successfully transition from IT to Finance? Any thoughts and opinions are much appreciated😊

I am Product Owner, and have an opportunity to change my Title to "Product Manager". The actual work I'm doing will not change significantly, it's just a Title change, since I've been working less and less with the scrum teams and doing more product analysis over the last year. My main goal with this is to ensure this looks good on my CV. My thought is a Product Manager role seems more senior to a product owner. Any thoughts on this and any advice on how to approach this? I'm based in London.

How realistic is it to go from no computer science degree, to getting Salesforce certs and an admin role?
