Thank you so much for all your videos…they have been a life saver..

I would really love like a guide from A-Z on how to become a business analyst and what to do along those steps. Please thanks!

Congratulations on 13k subscribers Kara! Thank you very much for providing your valuable experience and insights on these subjects for new and current BAs alike. What is your favorite part about working back in office over WFH? Take care!

Oh Thank you! Im so happy to see my channel grow and thank every one of you that subscribing! I actually prefer WFH because it allows better work life balance -but you end up working longer hours though! Thank you so much and God bless you Victor!

Great advise on the failure question. That's why post reviews are very important, what went well, what we could do better, what did we learn

Thank you so much for this, Karaleise 🙏.

Nice one Karaleise. Please, can you make an interview presentation video on how to gather and manage requirements for a new warehouse systems and also consider viewpoints of stakeholders.

AWESOME!!! THANKS FOR THIS 😊

Hello Karaleise, nice meeting you on your youtube page, I will want to have a session with you because I have a lot to discus. I like your approached and transparency, I believe I can succeed on this path of becoming a BA.

I do not have any experience but since I always had interests in being a BA I have a BA Qualification with Faculty of Training Institution IIBA already and I try hard as I can to shadow senior BAs and or Junior BAs so I can break into the space but truth be told it is not easy when there is no experience but i always practice what I already learned at the Training Institution

You are amazing!!!

Great information thanks

Thank you. Very useful

Please also do a video on how to align with your manager in Agile environment . When to escalate and when to not ?

Hello Kara, nice effort to educate us....quick question, Is a BA job like Scrum Master?

@karaleise

Жыл бұрын

Hi Everest, there are some overlap but the scrum master is the advocate for scrum in the organization, they are concerned with clearing roadblocks for the team and following the agile scrum guidelines to foster self-organizing teams that adapt quickly to change and they manage the sprints. So BA's work closely with scrum masters but the responsibilities are different. We are concerned with deliverig requirements, they are concerned with managing the process to get those requirements implemented. Hope that helps!

Hi @Karaleise | Business Analyst Training , A friend had this interview question: What difference does he see working as a Vendor Business analyst compared to working directly with the specific business. Basically asking why does he want to work with them directly instead of working as a vendor. How to formulate a convincing answer for this question?

@karaleise

Жыл бұрын

Hi Barath, this is another variation of the common interview question " why do you want to work here?" To answer this you would need to know something about the company and align yourself with them since you are being are being interviewed by them. Show why they would be a better fit for you than working with the vendor. You can align to their mission statement, you can align to their type of products, to who their clients are etc...

Hi I am into field sales B2B and B2C from last 9 years and I am a BBM graduate and want to come out of this to make my career in BA.Is it possible for me being a non tech and can I count my current exp of sales or I will be treated as fresher only? How can I count my current exp of sales kindly I need ur valuable guidance

@karaleise

Жыл бұрын

Hi Abhishek, thanks for watching my videos and supporting my channel. Sales is actually very aligned with being a Business Analyst. You work with prospects ( which are stakeholders), you uncover what their needs are so you can know what to sell them ( which is requirements elicitation), you present and drive discussions which is very transferable to the BA role. So yes I think you can definitely make the transition with your current experience. You will be new to the BA space but not a "fresher".

Hi Karaleise, I want to purchase the BA case study course from your site. Just wondering if once I purchase the course, do I have lifetime access or will it expire at some point?

@karaleise

Hi Saz, when you purchases each individual course here: the-backoffice-club.teachable.com/courses then its for lifetime. So the Case Study course will not expire. If you purchase the BA Power Pack Training Bundle you get all 14 courses for one low price but there is a time limit so that you will take initiative to learn all the BA skills within that time and kick start your career. Thank you!

No need to have a specific MBA to become a BA. A Bachelor degree is enough. You can use some transferable skills in customer service, accounting, reporting, help desk ... But if you really wanted to pursue an MBA , you can go the traditional route with Business Administration or try something more realistic like Information Technology, Project management, Software engineer

Hi Queciana, Thanks for watching! Yes the bundle is great to help you get the BA job because its hands on. There is no fluff, its explained from scratch, its not conceptual only, its practical, real world and its in the details. When you buy the bundle you get all my courses. Its a lot so start with the case study course first, do the process flow diagrams course next, practice with the Documents BAs Produce course to learn what you should be delivering to your project as a BA. Then do the best practices for writing user stories ( it has examples from real projects!). Dont miss out on watching the course on doing Interviews, it has recordings of real interviews to help you see what questions to expect and how to answer. When you finish this bundle you will definitely be well poised for your first BA job!! Enroll here: the-backoffice-club.teachable.com/p/business-analyst-power-pack-training-bundle

Companies don’t give six months to learn

@karaleise

Жыл бұрын

Hi Heart, thanks for watching. No the companies will not admit this but they know it takes 6 months for new employees to really deliver. However its not about them. Its about you. I want YOU to know it will take you 6 months to fully be able to add value there so that you give yourself some grace when you make mistakes. Its not 6 months for you to cruise and chill - No! Its 6 months of hard work for you to ramp up, learn the business, learn the process, learn the product and produce your deliverables. Along the way you are going to fail in some tasks, you are going to feel incompetent at some things and you are going to feel overwhelmed. I want you to know its normal and for youto keep going and not get frustrated. At the 6 months mark you start noticing that you have honed your skill and you start producing higher quality deliverables and you start really performing at a higher level. Hang in there! It'll happen.
