What is it like working as a Systems Analyst?
May 2016
Get your degree and never stop learning.
Systems Analyst:
A four year degree is nothing but essential for a trade such as Information Technology and specialize, such as, VMware.
April 2016
Systems Analyst:
Be prepared to have basic electrical knowledge, and work on printers.
April 2016
If nothing else.
Systems Analyst:
Receive approval for everything you are going to do. If a process doesn't exist... Make one.
Get everything in writing!
It may take an hour to do something... But estimate for double that just in case... There are very few times you will get to just sit and work (more so for smaller companies).
Try out new things!! Sign up for dev accounts, and always check for discounts.
Have your company purchase MSDN for you if possible (and using Microsoft).
February 2016
Good Career Choice.
Systems Analyst:
Anything in technology is a good career option. At first, I did not understand that a bachelors degree really prepared me for the professional world. It isn't what I learned in college so much as how to think. In tech, you must know how to think logically, and break tasks into smaller tasks. I never used COBOL in the real world, but the logic that goes behind it was very helpful in learning new languages. I now write MATLAB code to generate statistics for complex systems.
