The job of a business analyst requires both hard and soft skills. On the business side, business analysts must be able to pull, analyze, and report data trends, as well as share and apply that information. All business analysts do not need IT experience as long as they have a general understanding of how systems, products, and tools work. Some business analysts, on the other hand, have a strong IT background but little business experience and are interested in moving from IT to this hybrid role.

The following are some of the most crucial abilities and experiences for a business analyst:

  1. Communication skills, both verbal and written
  2. Consultative and interpersonal abilities
  3. Facilitation skills
  4. Problem-solving and analytical thinking
  5. Being able to give a high level of precision and being detail-oriented
  6. Organizational skills
  7. Understanding of the business structure
  8. Analysis of Stakeholders
  9. Engineering requirements
  10. Analyze the costs and benefits
  11. Modeling of processes
