Hi,

I have around 6 yrs of experience in the field of Knowledge Management. I have no technical experience nor the knowledge. I wish to switch my field as a Business Analyst. Is it a good decision to make? Pls advise.

Hi Ravinder,
The two main things you need to learn are:
1. To pose relevant questions
2. To find the answers to those questions.

No matter how much you study, the mindset of doing 1 and 2 is the most important part of being a BA.

So, first step is to question yourself, do you have that mindset?

(I have experienced teaching the skills of a BA to a non BA mindset person – it does not work – that person will never be a BA)

first u take experience as a developer and then go for BA.
because ba means needs to understand what requirement of client and how to communicate with them as well as developer. so its a good for u to join or work as a software developer
