Hello Partner,
This side Akash and I have a urgent requirement for my client, Please reply ASAP if interested, *Role: Project Manager Location: Mid Town, NY Duration: Long Term* *Rate: $450/day on C2C all inclusive.* - Review, analyze and create detailed documentation - Map and re-engineer business processes for optimization - Elicit and document business requirements for the new system - Conduct fit-gap analysis for vendor products against requirements - Write detailed functional design documents including wireframes for the new screens, business rules, etc - Design testing strategy and write test cases for new system functionality - Develop project plans - Develop testing plans *Qualifications* Communication Skills - Business analysts must be good communicators. This means they can facilitate working meetings, ask good questions, listen to the answers (really listen), and absorb what's being said. In today’s world, communication does not always happen face-to-face. The ability to be a strong communicator in a virtual setting (via conference calls or web meetings) is equally important. Problem-Solving Skills - No project is without problems. In fact, the entire project is a solution to a problem. At the highest level, BAs facilitate a shared understanding of the problem, the possible solutions, and determine the scope of the project. You’ll also find BAs in the midst of facilitating teams to solve technical challenges, especially when they involve negotiation between multiple business or technical stakeholders. Critical Thinking Skills - Business analysts are responsible for evaluating multiple options before helping a team settle on a solution. While discovering the problem to be solved, business analysts must listen to stakeholder needs but also critically consider those needs and ask probing questions until the real need is surfaced and understood. This is what makes critical thinking and evaluation skills important for new business analyst. Documentation and Specification Skills - While documentation or writing could be considered a subset of written communication, it's really its own skill set for a BA. Here I include the ability to create clear and concise documentation (the latter becoming increasingly necessary in a lean or agile world). Analysis Skills - Business analysts use a variety of techniques to analyze the problem and the solution. As a new BA, you might find that you naturally see gaps that others gloss over and identify the downstream impact of a change or new solution. As you mature as a BA, you'll use a variety of techniques to conduct analysis and deconstruct the problem or solution. Examples include use cases, business process models, and decision models. Visual Modeling - A close sister to many analysis techniques is the ability to create visual models, such as work-flow diagrams or wireframe prototypes. For any given analyst role, there could be specific models you need to create. As a general skill set, it's important to be able to capture information visually, whether in a formal model or a napkin drawing. Facilitation and Elicitation Skills - BAs facilitate specific kinds of meetings. The most common kinds of elicitation sessions a BA facilitates are interviews and observations. In some more advanced roles, the meetings are called JAD sessions or requirements workshops. Relationship-Building Skills - First and foremost on the list of soft skills is the ability to forge strong relationships, often called stakeholder relationships. A stakeholder is simply anyone who has something to contribute to your project and often you?ll work with many stakeholders from both the business and the technical teams. This skill involves building trust and often means stepping into a leadership role on a project team to bridge gaps. Self-Managing - While BAs are not project managers, the most successful BAs manage the business analysis effort. This means that the BA is proactive and dependency-aware. It also means they manage themselves to commitments and deadlines, a skill set which can involve influence, delegation, and issue management. 5+ years of experience in all aspects of business analysis function including business process mapping, requirements gathering, functional design and testing Good understanding of all aspects of the Software Development Lifecycle Good Excel skills, and analytical skills Proven time management skills are a must, as is the ability to work at candidate's own direction and balance competing priorities and customer needs Candidate must be detail oriented, self-starter with proven written and verbal communication skills Able to communicate effectively, to structure complicated thoughts in a clear and concise manner and have an approachable personality. *Thanks & Regards,* Akash Sinha Kani Solutions *Phone:* 609-952-6469 *Email*: [email protected] *Gtalk: *[email protected] LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/pub/akash-sinha/b1/a04/57b> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "American Vendor--IT Consulting" group.
