Hi you guys. I have been thinking for sometime to make a career change. Presently I’m a technical recruiter - hiring in the Salesforce Practice. For sometime now I have been thinking of making a change into Salesforce Business Analyst. Has anyone made a transition as such? Any tips? How should I approach it? I find myself stuck because I just don’t know where to start. There are so many certs. I don’t have a background as a B.A. etc, etc.

Look forward to your suggestions!
