How to convince recruiters about a career change to Corporate Finance?

finance
Tomeka tells us:


I am an Industrial engineer and want to make a move to Corporate Finance, one of the questions I get most often is why do I want to make such a career change and how I see myself fit into this role ? or justify how you can do well in Corporate Finance role despite your non finance background?
I am currently enrolled in a full time MBA program and planning to take finance courses but I want to know how I can really sell myself on this idea ?

    My opinion you need to make this happen made career change in my lifestyle good luck.
    The time had to another and was able to another and was able to find manager that took chance on me but had to another and was able to another and was able to take chance on me but had no mortgage.
    My opinion you may need to find hiring manager that took chance on you avoid head hunters or recruiters they are looking for.
