Default From civil service to banks

Hi all

I am currently in the gov sector, fresh grad. I am ultimately interested in the world of finance and banking, and I would prefer to work in that sector.

Before you all chide me for thinking of jumping so soon, I just want to know if there is anything I should know if I want to make the transition to the banking/investment world. I don't have good qualifications, just a 2:2 paper. As such I would believe that most graduate programes are probably out of my league?

does experience in the civil service mean anything to the banks? how long before I should try my luck in the finance sector, before i get too old? Any people who transitioned from civil service to banks here?
