I'm not there yet but almost. I started working for a wireless carrier in 09/2010, promoted in 01/2011 and a few Analyst jobs opened internally on 02/2011. I had an informational interview for an Accounting Analyst position. Interview went well. Lady told me she would have really considered me for the position if I would have formally applied. She gave me a few names to network with.

2 days later I got an email from a supervisor asking me to interview for an alalyst position that opened up that same day. He gave me a choice of days to interview. Apperantly i was recommended by the lady i had the informational interview with.

I went to speak to HR but they shot down any hopes of transferring for at least 9 months.

But I was told that if I wanted to get into finance, that I would get in. I just have to wait what seems like an eternity.
