Work on a tangentially related field until they get enough experience to be accepted in the new industry?

I worked in the furniture industry building software and we had a great interior designer who ended up working as a SME (business analyst) in our projects for 3 or 4 years.

I helped her prepare her resume and practice for interviews and she got a job as an actual BA making the salary of a mid level/senior BA and has been killing ever since.
