Career Change in Finance

Hello Everyone!! Hope everyone is well during these trying COVID times!!

I am new to the community and would love to connect with people in the Finance sector. I am currently looking to change my career as I discovered a recent love for finance. I am preparing for my Masters in Singapore next year and would love any advice regarding how to get the right experience and credentials to be taken seriously in the finance industry in Singapore!

And if anyone can suggest companies I can look at for internships in finance or if anyone is looking to hire me (for free :)) to help in their finance requirements, that would be greatly appreciated!!
