Hey Viners,

I need advise from all the finance experts, I have done my B.Tech in 2015 in Computer science and have been working in Tech industry for past 8years now.

I am thinking for higher studies on other side of the industry which is Money/Finance. Given that I have Zero knowledge and have no idea even where to start in the finance side. Looking for advice or guidance to at least help me with some online courses or articles so that I can know and understand if I am made for the financial side or not.

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Hi,

Am from tech background have 10+ years of experience. Have goal/interest in managing a mid size company with around 1000+ employee as a CXO professional in coming 5 years.

I know this is not easy as someone who has no exposure in finance/marketing/sales etc because tech itself is not enough to run a business and sales and finance experience is also required for it.

What all resources in finance should I delve into depth so that I can understand minutes of business so that someone like me from a tech background can somehow think of target to run a business and prepare for it.

Can not go for top mba so kindly suggest me something so that I can learn and do it through self study.

TIA

Suggest resources to delve deeper into finance.

Software Developer

I am an engineering student in Bangalore 
I have read about different jobs in first year and now I am getting really interested in finance. 
I have no interest in core engineering and tech and Consulting is difficult to get into right after undergraduate.
But I am feeling really under confidence to jump into it , I feel I am making a wrong decision. 
I have seen people who did only finance related internships in their engineering but they are from IITs .
Any engineer who switched to finance here can share your experience ? 
I got interested in finance after reading about PE , VC , investing.

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hey folks. 
I am a PM with 1 YOE. 

I make a lot of unforced errors and have been in bad situations because of poor communication too. Although, I try my best to communicate everything and anything. The founder just hear me speak and not to hear specifically. 

I am gradually feeling, that maybe I am not good enough to survive in this role. 

On the other hand, I am pretty much interested in finance. Am above average in hard skills named as Financial Modelling, Financial Statement Analysis, Deal Structuring and Valuation Techniques. I read pre IPO papers to understand more about industries and sectors. Do financial modelling for the same companies to check if I am on the right track or not. 

How can I switch to a finance role maybe?  Or what other fields should I explore to get out of this. I have graduation in BTech. 

P. S. - Need some serious help. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I m a student currently pursuing  btech in entc from 1 of the top prestigious  college in pune. When i pass out i can easily get 14 lpa (my batch's avg package ) i m avg in academics but always know what i am doing. But my goals are diff i m planning to make a switch into finance and get into either a vc or pe role or even the sell side investment role is fine for me. The bare minimum is i will work at a startup in finance or marketing role. But i dont want to do enggineering dont know why i never liked it and feel trapped here. I have no finance or accountin experience or core knowledge i have learned few things from internent but i dont think thats enough. I m planning to attempt cfa and give various sebi registered certification exams like research  analyst , aifa etc . And then by getting 2/3 years exp i will even try for mba at iims. Am i on the right path on my career please provide your opinion or guidance . 


Thank you

Am i doing good by leaving enggineering?

Graduated from NMIMS in 2023- BSc Finance. Interned at some marquee IB firms and startups. 

Working at an NBFC in an MD's office role- Strategy Consultant since then.

Having done multiple projects for the company, I now want to switch to a consulting company where I can have a more diversified set of projects. 

But the market being the way it is, I'm not able to find reasonably good opportunities on LinkedIn. 

How do I go about the whole thing then? Would be grateful for any suggestion or referrals.

Looking for some guidance

Hey good folks, I’ve have had a decent long career of 9 years now, started with finance for 1 year switched quickly to category/program/ business facing roles for the longest time, I have worked in various edtechs - notable Unacademy initial days, currently working for a fintech company, I have a very good interest in tech as a whole for a long time, product management is the best role for me move forward and switch, I wanted to know a way to switch or learn in the right way, do courses work ? Will only practical experience work ? 

P.s not exactly a newbie in the space, I’ve identified problems, ideated, built and solved problems via features, functionality and process all in the purview of product + results - one of the reason why I find it extremely interesting 

What would be an optimal way to become a PM (wouldn’t say a right way)

Need guidance, switching from program/category managent role to a PM role

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Hi.

I'm a 9yr exp full stack engineer. Have done webdev mostly.
Currently earning around 30lpa
I want a job change because:
1. More money
2. Bored of webdev

I was looking around and HFT seemed interesting to me. I haven't done my full research on it, but from what little I have done, it seems like it is a very niche vertical requiring highly skilled folks and also we don't have HFT companies in India?

Anyways, I'm not fixated on HFT, that's just one avenue I explored.

I just want some better paying programming job where I can feel livelier. For eg., when I do complex DB queries for debugging and reports, or digging and parsing logs to find patterns and debugging, or optimizing some piece of code to squeeze more performance out of it.

I am fine with writing basic routine to make bucks but it's not fulfilling.

Please advise how to go about my career progression in a fulfilling way.

Seeking change. Looking at FinTech etc

Is financial modelling & valuation course really good to start a career for people with a long gap after graduation without any work experience? Is it really a highly demanded skill to start a career?
Looking for advice. If it’s good, suggest which schools/institutes provide training and placements?
