The OP is asking if he stands a chance of transferring to front office from GS IT.
My answer is no, not without getting his MBA from a top school.



But there’s an inherent advantage in working at a bank because it gives you access to people who you can network with and who can pull for you when the next recruiting season comes around.



From my experience,(and I know I have a lot more experience than you) I’ve never seen it done without a IT guy going back to get his MBA at a top school.

However, I have seen engineers being recruited to IB directly, but that’s is not the point in this thread.
