> We do have a set of required reading material that I've gone through, along with product demos, and even 2 VC books that have been recommended on the subject.
What were some of the reading material and books? What area of fintech?
I went the other way, from finance into non-finance. And from bigco to smallco. It took a solid 6-12 months to start feeling competent. It was worth it. I now have a lot more breadth on the business side, and technical depth from having to read code to learn a bunch of new stacks and end to end integration flows. At the smallco there wasn't much for docs to read, and the ones they had were out of date.
