Felicia Arambula was a Benefits Manager, Programmer and Technical Consultant before starting her BA career. Before finding her first BA position, she joined and volunteered for IIBA and attended a BA Boot Camp class. She used the blog posts here at Bridging the Gap and also Laura’s book, How to Start a Business Analyst Career.
The keys to her success were volunteering to build a BA experience and learning everything she could from all the resources she could find.
She adds that you don’t need to know everything about Business Analysis to get your first job as a BA. Learn the basics, promote yourself, then build on your career as you go.
