    I really appreciate how clearly you were able to explain what a business analyst does. I’m barely learning about this role, and found this video extremely helpful. Thank You!

    this video is too generic. It's very difficult to break into a business analyst position right out of school. Pretty much all of the entry level positions require 2-3 years experience which is pretty ridiculous! Most or all companies no longer have training programs for graduates. They do not want to spend the money and resources to train a new graduate that's why so many graduates are unable to find that first job.. You practically have to get a ladmin or an assistant type job just to break down so very frustrating these days. Taking a certificate of business analytics may or may not help since thats not really on the job experience which is what most companies are looking for,

    Great information Jen, I'm pursuing my bachelor's degree in supply chain, transportation, and Logistics Management. My goal is to be a supply chain data scientist focusing on artificial intelligence and machine learning. I would love your input on which master's degree program will fit my goals. Supply chain analytical vs Industrial and systems engineering. Thanks in advance.

      If you have worked in a role as a real business analyst you would also pick up project management skills and vice versa. There are skills overlap between the 2 roles.
      When I say real business analysis I’m talking about the role and tasks defined by the IIBA and PMI cause a lot of people are confused especially in the USA when they say they do data visualization, python etc and they are a business analyst which is really either data analysis or business analytics.

      I’d look into Business Analysis and not Business Analytics. It’s not the same thing. Business Analysts are professionals who do Business Analysis. Business Analytics is more data oriented which is more like a Data Analyst. I’m planning on getting a degree in Business Analysis. I’ve been doing a lot of research and it seems like people tend to confuse the two.

      Yes. Anywhere data is available - an analyst can exist. For example, if you focus on an engagement ring niche. You can analyze the demographic in which people are likely to get engaged. From there, you can get the average income in that age group or that area - using that you can advise a jeweler on the type of rings to stock and the price point to penetrate the market from.
