Switching from construction to investment banking is a significant career change. While it's certainly possible, it requires careful consideration and preparation.

Investment banking demands a strong financial acumen, analytical skills, and a deep understanding of financial markets.


Your experience in construction, while valuable in terms of project management and problem-solving, might not directly translate to the required skill set.

To make an informed decision, assess your interest in finance, willingness to acquire new knowledge, and potential career path within investment banking. Consider pursuing additional qualifications like an MBA or relevant certifications to bridge the gap. Networking with professionals in the industry can also provide valuable insights.

Ultimately, the decision depends on your career aspirations and willingness to invest time and effort in acquiring new skill

hope this helps you!!
