How can I get into the accounting/finance field at an entry level? Financial analyst?

I’m 24, one year out of college. I got a bachelor’s degree in Marketing, which is basically a piece of crap. I’ve been in sales now for a year, and I hate it. I’m decent at it, and make decent money, but it doesn’t suit my personality.

And also, what would I be doing? I ask this cus the interview is 3 days away and a 3 hour drive and want to make sure it is worth it and I actually know and like what I would be doing. Thanks.
