I majored in psychology but became a passionate Copywriter and Editor. Writing is something many people can do, yet they are not confident. But with a bit of practice, you'll do great! Go ahead, pursue your dream!

Plenty of people switch to a career that is unrelated to their studies. In your case, it is very possible to transition to a copywriting career.
A few things you could do to jumpstart your career would be:
1) Read up and take some courses on effective copywriting. There are some little tips and tricks that can really boost your writing skills. There are plenty of free resources online as well as structured courses available on websites like Skillshare or Udemy.
2)Properly craft your CV. Since you are transitioning from one field to another, we would highly suggest including a personal summary in your CV to introduce who you are and what career you are looking for. This will help employers understand that you are not a spam application despite having a different background. You can also highlight any courses or writing experiences to further boost your chances.
(Top tip: pay particular attention to your grammar and spelling, as a copywriter these are very important things to be wary of!)
3) Try out some internships. They're a great way to learn and get relevant practical experience. Sometimes they can even lead to a full-time job. Of course, you can also try your luck with entry-level positions, just make sure that you prepare to impress them.

Of course, I’m an example as I was a film major then I got an offer to be a writer and videographer with no experience. Go for an internship to start your portfolio if you don’t mind

Yes, it's possible! I did ACCA and now in people development. But you gotta show that you are interested or passionate in the field. Take up some courses or work on your copywriting part-time etc to show that here's the field you truly wanna be in.
