A friend of mine successfully moved from a marketing role to investment banking after getting his MBA. The key is to get a summer internship.

Agree about internship.
Btw, what position and in what country did your friend accepted accepted after graduation?

Canada. Admittedly, he made the transition back in 2006 when the job market was a lot better. It also helped that he was genuinely interested in finance and can speak the "language" of finance (eg: price multiples, the factors that make stock prices go up / down...etc).
