About this episode

Have you thought about moving into a business analysis career but are concerned you might not have the right skills? Many business analysis professionals started their careers in a different field altogether. (Hint: you don't need a computer science background to get into business analysis!) In this episode, Scott and Susan talk about switching your career into business analysis and answer your questions about how to do that.
