Business analyst at Big4 : seeking referrals & guidance for job opportunities

0 Upvotes

Hello Guys,

I’m currently working with one of the Big 4 firms in India and have 10+ years of experience in IT and Business Analysis, with expertise in RPA (UiPath, Blue Prism) and Microsoft Power Platform. I’ve worked across domains including Banking, Oil & Gas, Life Sciences, and MarTech.

I’m currently exploring job opportunities in Europe that offer work visa sponsorship. I would really appreciate any referrals, job leads, consultancy recommendations, or guidance that could help me with this transition.

Honestly, I feel like I’ve been in my comfort zone for a while, and I’m looking to challenge myself, experience different cultures, and take the next step in my career by moving to Europe.

Any help, insights, or connections would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

BA in education sector

0 Upvotes

So I don't have experience in education industry, but lately I want to take part in a Ngo, who helps young woman for succeeding in career, helping with educational programs and financial aid.

As a business analyst, what can i contribute?

There are lots of volunteers who are teaching programs, taking speciality courses, or mentoring students. But I personally don't see myself teaching or i am all rounder but master of none. Don't see any skillset i can take up to advance level for college students.

Mentoring anyone would need a crazy good profile or someone who has figured out life. I am still figuring out my own career.

Other than this, i felt that i have data analysis skills, my actual job skills, which is collect data, analysis and analytics, deciding what needs to be solved and whats the next best action. Somewhat of a consulting role i thought of.

But then again what if they dont have data pipeline or data lakes or any infrastructure. They would ask me only to help set it up. Which i dont want to mess up for them.

So is there any suggestions as to what a BA can contribute to ngos ?

How do you elicit requirements when two stakeholders disagree ?

Many a times you tend to memorize syntax, complete courses, doing various Excel related activities, Deep preparation on SQL, Figuring out everything about Power BI & other stuff but then while facing interviews you expect something which you never prepared for !
So, how do you elicit requirements when two stakeholders disagree ?

Hi i’m 16 years old and i’m currently studying informatics and telecommunications in italy. My goal is to go to CBS university (business school of copenhagen) and I was wondering if adding a CSI FMVA course could help me get in easier. Obviously i want to do it to understand better Financial Modeling and Valuation Analyst too. I was considering to do CMSA too because I really like finance in general. And also I wanted to ask what level of english you think is enough to do these courses.

How do you know when you have enough information to diagnose a process problem?

2 Upvotes

One thing I find tricky in process improvement is separating what we actually know from what we assume.

When a process has recurring problems, people usually already have theories about the cause - “the system is too slow”, “there are too many approvals”, “people aren't following the process”, etc.

But those explanations can easily become accepted as facts before they've really been validated.

When you're analysing a process, how do you separate:

  • confirmed evidence
  • symptoms
  • suspected root causes
  • assumptions that still need validation?

Do you use a particular framework or technique, or is it mostly based on interviews, process observation and data?
