Hi,I would like to get adv that i am in banking industry but was thk to change environment to other field. The reason being is banking back end always require to work very late whihc i cant commit mys elf to work too late. If other field, i do now know they can poay me back same as my current job because i may don;t have the experience in that field.I would like to work front line job such as customer service job,but this position may have lower salary.
Tne problem now is even i don;t mind to have pay cut just to get the job can leave on time rather thatn work OT, i don't know how is the employer will think for that,as they may think i can work long. The issue here is my was sent out alot of CV to employer seems no any get back to me. Maybe i over qualify?
How shd i sound it in my cover letter mentioned that i don;t mind to get pay cut?
Pls send me some adv on this.
Thanks alot.

Dear TopFinancialJobs,

What does it take for a software engineer to break into the trading world? Other than the usual suspects: determination, enthusiasm, drive and background knowledge, what is the best route to convincing investment banks that you have what it takes?

Thanks,
