I have been on several hiring panels in my current job and I always looked for people with non-tech skills. We had a coder who was twenty years in finance and then did a boot camp, she was better than many mids because she could talk to people and understand requirements better, had understandings of office policies, meeting etiquette, and was great at making relationships with other devs and building a network so when she didn't know something she knew exactly who to ask.
I'm sure down the road that time in finance will probably give her a leg up in finance related tech too. Non tech experience can definitely be a boon
