    • @MutuMurugesan

      Always best to start with your testing experience rather than trying to wait for that entry level BA role. It's more feasible to switch to a BA from a tester as opposed to getting an entry level BA role.

    Hi sir, I'm a MBA graduate,Business analytics course was included in my MBA program and I'm from non engineering background and I'm preparing for Business analyst role. As a part of preparation I'm currently learning my sql, python programming, power bi and excel by myself... I also possess skills like problem solving, root cause analysis and communication.. As a fresher i have an idea to learn the technical skills for two months and to look for internship opportunities in business analyst role.. I'm perplexed on how to search for intership. As of now i have searched only in internshela, naukri and LinkedIn but there there are zero intership opportunities and also very less opportunities for freshers who wants to become a BA. I also noticed there are plenty of opportunities for Business analyst who have atleast 1 year of experience. Is there anyother ways to look for BA interships??

    • @MutuMurugesan
      @MutuMurugesan 3 місяці тому

      Hi - I'll be very honest and say I'm not entirely sure how internship opportunities are advertised in India. but based on what you said above - it looks like you are doing all the right things. just dont ever give up. keep pushing and take up the opportunity that you get. its easier to switch to a BA role at some point in your career. I started as a software tester.

    Hi sir... I recently graduated my bachelor degree in Information Technology, and i wish start my career as a business analyst... Bcoz of intrest to speak with people to get thier idea's and what they want... And communicate with developer team... I felt like this role was made for me 😅❤... But im a fresher and i attend some interviews related to this role... But they need an experience candidate for entry level job... Or they can expect atleast they can complete MBA from well recognised university... I applied more than 200 companies, and attend more than 10 walk-in... They are just conduct the interview for their purpose not for hiring... I'm tired of to applying and attending interview... So please help me to how a fresher can crack the interview and placed in a company... And another thing I'm not come from a well settled or middle class family, im lower middle class background... So we don't enough economics to pursuing MBA or doing some course... And im from tier 2-tier 3 college... In my college we don't have placement also, still I'm not getting a job sir... Now what i do... I don't want to do some job for earn the money... I want to love the job... That's why I'm still struggling get the BA role... Please do some guidance for me... And tell your opinion... Thank you sir ..

      @MutuMurugesan 3 місяці тому

      Hi - I totally understand your frustration. One thing that I can assure you is that you dont need a masters or a MBA to become a business analyst, but companies would definitely look for atleast 1-2 years of experience working in IT projects. It can be in any role, Dev or Test. I would suggest to get some experience to learn how IT projects work, how to work in a team etc and then it will be much easier to switch to a BA role. I would suggest maybe building a portfolio (it can even be a power point or via free account in miro etc) to showcase some of your skills like process mapping, visual modeling, etc.

      Hi - i would never discourage anyone from trying. With no experience I would suggest working along side a BA and then slowly taking on BA responsibility and eventually securing a role. I understand it can be a bit difficult to apply for a BA role with no experience. But please keep trying. 🙏

    • @MutuMurugesan
      @MutuMurugesan 3 місяці тому

      Ideally BA role needs to be in the office. Having said that we all had to be fully remote for a couple years due to reasons that are out of our control. Companies do prefer employees to be in the office for a min of 3 days a week. Look - BA role varies so much that certain BA roles can be performed fully remote, but if you are doing a feasibility study as a BA then you definitely need to be in the office/travel to sites, etc. This really depends on the type of project and the type of BA role.
