Absolutely, transitioning from finance to IT is possible and can be highly rewarding too. I also know many who transitioned their career from one to another domain. At _VOIS, we welcome professionals from diverse backgrounds. Here's why this shift can be seamless: 1. Transferable Skills: Skills like analytical thinking, problem-solving, and attention to detail from finance are valuable in IT. 2. Training and Development: _VOIS offers training programs to help you acquire technical skills. You can learn software like Power BI, SQL, Python, or even specialized financial software like Bloomberg or SAP. 3. Collaborative Culture: We encourage collaboration across teams. Your financial expertise can be applied to IT projects where financial software knowledge is a bonus. You can start learning any of those tools/technologies above shared or you can also search one, and start your learning and 1st step towards this transition. Even in my career journey, I found skills like BI Tools and SQL to be particularly useful in data analysis and reporting, which are essential in both finance and IT roles. So, embrace the change  you'll have support and resources to succeed!
