What can the members of QN recommend for someone who is looking to break into finance world, that comes from a technical background but wants a non-technical role? I don't really care if I go for a position on the bottom of the financial job "pole". I just want to break into a non-technical role that would allow me to learn about markets, economics(micro/macro) and other factors that could drive markets in a certain direction. If you haven't notice, I am having a hard time trying to land the entry role I want and the role I want could be classified as a basic role. I just really want to get in "there" to learn things that are knowledgeable and would put me closer to my end goal.
Some advice please

Connor,
My short-time goal is as you mention would be to end up as analyst at a firm or IB bank. I would rather work at which ever one has a smaller environment so I have the change to find a mentor. My long-term goal would be to go out on my own and take those skill I've learned and do my own thing. As I've mention before I'm having a hard time finding even the most entry level position that would set me down those 2 paths.
