Consulting Career Paths for Graduates

Hi,
I am Economics graduate who has limited knowledge about Finance. However, most consultancy firms prefer that their candidates have some foundational knowledge about finance if I am not wrong. What steps do I take  to bridge the gap between my technical knowledge and what is required by the market? Could taking additional courses help? 
Thank you.
