It may be beneficial to feature more concrete examples of what a business analyst does, both over the course of their career and on a day-to-day basis. Thanks for sharing.

Yup, it definitely felt like an imposter working in a consulting firm was expected to tell C-level executives how to improve their business when one just graduated from school. Horrible feelings. The executives knew that but they still came and it is because they needed insurance and deniability on their decisions. so when something went wrong, they could say, see, I performed due diligence, checked with McKinsey, or Anderson, Or any of the big consultancies.

" 5:20... I realised that as I was sitting there writing recommnedations for a client CEO, that 3 years ago I was an unpaid intern for the same media company" ...BooM!! ...McKinsey Consulting Business model in a nutshell

While BAs may share a core set of skills there is no one defined roll for a BA in every organization.. While as a BA in one company I do X at another company I could be doing Y. The very word BA can be interchanged with other roles such as "Operations", "Consultant", "Project Manager" and a host of others. So I could see if she had no idea what exactly she'd be doing.

She graduated from harvard and that is a top ranked school in the U.S so basically if you graduate from one of the better schools your chances are higher getting a job then someone from a regular college or university it shows that you have potential to learn quickly and be very intelligent if you focus on it.

Look at a couple job openings from this company and came here! Now i don’t feel so intimidated since i meet most qualifications. Never hurts to just apply since many get the job and don’t have a strong knowledge on the work. I’m very hard working, what I don’t know, I’ll figure out on my own and ask others for advice!

Team success always important!

I like this video very much, Now I can feel more confident over my choosed career option.

I think the term Business Analyst is not specific enough. The terms should be things like Business Intelligence Analyst, Business Development Analyst, Business Systems Analyst. These are vastly different things.

I like how most people talk shit about the company without actually working for it or its main competitors. Strategy/Management consulting is one of the best ways to start your career and grow even if it means less personal life. Hint: it's not forever and you should join the company based on the people you've met during interviews/not based on pay or #1 rank of the company.

CSI focuses on the flow of the information. how the decision making is made based on the information provided. for example, the procurement department requires the information from the sales team, marketing and directors for information and approval. it may takes weeks before procurement staff knows what they need to buy. and CSI is there to make the system information travel as fast as needed, but it has to be detailed, concise and useful. BA is different. they tackle from broader perspective.for instance, a change of government regulation will impact greatly business policies, directors and owners are affected and therefore make some changes. these changes may not be well accepted by each departments for example logistic, and production. BA is there to solve the differences without sacrificing the main objectives. for example, tin tax is increased by 30% effectively next months, you and your team are required to increase sales without increasing the price. and you have 2 choices, increasing sales, or decreasing budget.

If you are under the age of 25, wear a short skirt, speak glib consultant jargon, attended the same Ivy League school as the hiring manager, and bring bio-diversity, you are a lock to be hired. You don't even need to know what a BA is or how to perform a regression analysis. You just need to stare at a smart phone, avoid communicating with people, and look pretty.

Corruption/Greed/Moral ambiguity/Complete lack of integrity. As you witness the slow degradation of modern society, and the disappearance of personal liberty, and the middle-class, you can attempt to ignore that little nagging voice in the back of your mind that continues to repeat the mantra "In this you were complacent. In this you were complicit. Your children and you children's children will reap what you have sown, and you will die with regrets unimaginable in scale", only to realize you can never fully silence this thought completely, and as you near the end of your life, it will only increase in its frequency.

To be fair, hiring people just to fill up diversity quotas can be just as detrimental to those hired (the job may not be a good fit, and thus this damages them as people) and those who hire (companies can ill afford a "bad fit"). From a mathematical standpoint, it's all about probability. The fact that whites are still the majority in NA means that probabilistically, it's a logical outcome. You might get more people of colour in some batches, and maybe none in some. Besides, it's a pretty short video. Can't show all that much without losing cohesion, you know?

Hi there, Alex. I did not intend to imply that diverse candidates should be hired to satisfy quotas at all. In my own HR based opinion, I believe that it is important to the work culture as well as the development of a professional team to include a great deal of diversity; however, you are correct when speaking in regards to statistical probability - but that is why it is important to be mindful. In regards to marketing a company to potential employees, I would definitely stand firm in my professional belief that it would be important to include in even a short clip, a glimpse of diversity in the work environment (diversity as it relates to the disabled, race.nationality diversity, pregnancy, older workers, etc) but that's my perspective. I enjoyed your input - especially the statistical input.
