    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 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      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.

      Hi Bro - you can just do a Business Analysis course via Coursera to know what this role is all about. To be honest anyone can get into Business Analysis - just remember that you need to really persevere to get a BA role. Also remember that is 99% an IT role and you will be working as part of a team that builds or improves a software.

    I started my career as a back-end developer and later switched to front-end development after completing my internship. Eventually, I transitioned to a business analyst role. As mentioned in the video, I also began my BA journey with BABOK. The main purpose was to build products through projects for small businesses. I faced a lot of challenges when I started without any mentor or senior guidance. I began solo and encountered many issues because everyone here has a technical, senior-level background. After working on multiple projects and gaining 8 months of experience, I now understand the value this job description can provide. But the hard truth is that not everyone can play this role; it's crucial. I listened to your video completely 😍and understood and I think I reversed your journey! Good Video !

Additionally, the exams were delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. All the exams were finally completed last year. Now, I want to change my career path and look for IT jobs. However, due to the career gap, I am facing difficulties entering the IT sector. I have recently completed a Python course.

    • @MutuMurugesan
      @MutuMurugesan 24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Do you mean the team members didn't get along from a personal working relationship level or team members that were a bit resistant at the project level? I think either way - the best way to deal with this is by having an open conversation about what concerns these guys and doing our best to address their concerns. It's often lack of common understanding or project priorities. People mostly only see things from their own shoes. Giving them a different perspective really helps.

      Hi Ria - Thank you for your message. I think it will be hard to provide a complete response via a comment but my thoughts are that - given your current experience - Business Analyst or Business Support would be good roles to get in. Business Intelligence/analytics will be more technical - if you enjoy working in Power BI or other visualisation tools - that might be a good option. but you like interacting with business/co-ordinating things, writing requirements, building process maps then Business Analyst role would be good. I think it will be easy for you to transition to a Business Analyst role rather than a Business Intelligence related role. I would suggest reading the BABOK and taking the ECBA certification. This would help in understading the role better.
