Creativity is hardly the word that comes to mind, when you first think about getting into the analysis field. You do not knowingly note that this an ideal quality, but most Business analyst courses recommend it as vital. In life, you are unlikely to meet a person who has these qualities / skills from birth, or has received them in full at school or university.
The requirements expert is responsible for writing requirements specifications for further transmission to the developers. Unlike a BA, requirements analysts do not just find out the high level requirements- they are responsible for developing a detailed description of the designed system. At the same time, a RA does not necessarily have deep knowledge in IT and design system architecture, since this is allocated among programmers, architects and system designers.
Most analysts in any outsourcing company focus on the intelligence requirements of the system. It is rare to find "pure" business analysts who are well versed in any one subject area, plus keep in constant touch with the customer. Moreover, the work load of the analyst, when up to at least 80%, would be very difficult, so the cost of the maintenance is quite significant.
It should nevertheless be noted that companies and analysts need each other. As for system analysts, then without a BA in the system, they have little meaning, except when the customer comes to business analysts on their own part, or you have a customer-professional, knowledgeable and able to convey a "wish list" to the client. Yes, not all customers know exactly what they want.
The IT experts that you have working for you are more than likely to be in disarray. This is where analysts come to the aid of the company. The International Business Analysis Institute defines this position as a professional who "understands business challenges and opportunities in the context of the requirements and recommends solutions that enable the organization to achieve its goals".
The need to communicate or rather, your will to communicate, and, in most cases, to periodically make public appearances is also ever- present. The need to switch between different activities and, as progress is made between several completely different in nature projects can also be a tough challenge. You will have to make decisions and be held accountable for them.
The fact that remains is, everything is individual, plus a lot depends on where you work after studying (in which company / with what customers / what team / on which project / what the subject area is). At this point, you will probably need to at least consider an introductory lecture. The information provided will be useful or at least allow you to once again make sure that you are in the right place.
Knowledge of IT and software development frameworks is always handy, this is the so-called technical background. Knowledge of a foreign language is also useful in terms of written and oral applications. IT outsourcing is mainly aimed at foreign countries. Naturally, in unique situations where you know you will build your entire professional career exclusively with English- speaking customers, you can safely ignore this point. Train-ability is also an important aspect. Learning does not only take place during the training phase. In principle, it is important to constantly improve. You will also have to monitor new technologies, tools and approaches to filtering the flow of information in your industry.
