The type of business analyst that you want to be kind of stays with you for the rest of your B.A. career. And so it’s really important to understand from a career strategy perspective if you want to be an analyst the first type of business analyst is what is typically referred to as a business process analyst. And this is the type of B.A. that works a lot more on the business side of the company than on the I.T. side the second type of business analyst is what is called a business systems analyst or BSA. Some companies call them and the systems analyst typically is on the polar opposite side of the business process analysts that are a lot more on the I.T. side of things than they are on the business side. The third type of business analyst is what I like to call the well-rounded business analyst and with a well-rounded business analyst i a B.A. that started off in either the business process area of business analysis or the business systems the area and what they’ve done is over time they’ve grown their skill set into the area that they didn’t start off in. So if somebody starts off as a P S A and then they learn how to work a lot more with the business and they learn how to do a lot of process design work and a lot of the softer skills like the objection handling and a lot of the other skills that you need to be a good process analyst. If somebody is gone from a BSA and learned those BPA skills what I typically refer to those types of business analysts as is the well-rounded business analyst and that is really the goal. I think that you should consider having for your own career because those are the types of business analysts that are in most demand in any company that you look at. Now let’s talk compensation in terms of compensation. The business systems analyst typically earns more than the business process analysts and there are a few different reasons for why that is the main reason being that systems analysis work tends to be a lot more grueling and a lot more difficult to learn. Than process analysis work. The amount of pressure that a systems analyst typically has to deal with in most companies is a lot higher than the pressure that a business process analyst has to deal with. And that’s not to say that the BP job is easy because trying to help the company figure out how they’re going to function is not by any means an easy task but technically speaking the systems analysis skills are in a lot more demand and they’re harder to acquire. So in terms of compensation, it’s a systems analyst that wins out on the compensation side of things. Let’s talk a job difficulty level which I’ve already alluded to a little bit in terms of difficulty technically speaking as a systems analyst you’re going to have to learn some of the what I like to call harder technical skills and these are skills like ask you all for example is probably the key skill that systems analysts have to know because what ask you a lets a systems analysts do is tinker around inside a database without having to work with the application itself. So you can basically open up the hood of a piece of software and you can tinker around and they’re using ask you up so in terms of difficulty levels the BSA role is typically a lot more difficult. And obviously, that’s part of the reason why it hit the compensation for it is a little bit higher. Now let’s talk about the most important thing that you have to consider when you’re trying to make a decision. What is the right fit for you now if you’re the type of person who enjoys talking to people and you like bringing people along with you to certain conclusions about how things should work and you like to negotiate and you like to work a lot more with people than with software. Chances are that you’re going to be a much better fit for the process. #GeneralistBusinessAnalyst #BusinessProcessAnalyst #BusinessSystemsAnalyst
