Certifications are good but you also need to network with the right people who are willing to assist you/ mentor you and give you the opportunity to get a job as a business analyst. Otherwise there are people in Wendy's McDonalds and KFC holding certifications in MICROSOFT/PMO/Prince/ITIL/CCNA/CCIE

From my exp, I have seen many [ositions available for BA positions in all kind of companies.
So I would say that the prospects are good for BAs.

The real question is wheather you are a good match for these positions or not.
Many companies here list out the basic requirements that everyone has but they look for some unwriten qualifications...
If you are able to understand those and bridge the gaps, it would be a short and sweet journey to find a job...

So specifically, what kind of jobs are available for BAs?
Are jobs more inclined towards technology (SAP stuff) or industry specific (Banking BA/Retail BA)?

I'm into Retail Banking as a BA and have completed CCBA - not sure if that helps or adds value?!

Do we have people on this thread who are in Canada working as BA? Their guidance will indeed be very helpful!!
