How difficult is a lateral switch?
Currently working as Business Analyst (IT service management)
Client handling, managing several IT teams, releases, incidents,changes.
Defining UI/Functional requirements of replatforming systems. Integral part of a replatforming project of enterprise IT landscape, managing IT operations BAU, Hypercare etc.

But not an integral part of Technology/Dev team. I.e. low level system knowledge.

What are the possibilities to switch to BI/Data engineering etc?!

What's your yoe and cctc?

1.5 YOE.
CTC : 5.5 LPA

Can easily switch expected CTC 10-12

Thanks but the concern is though I have a basic level of knowledge on data engineering/BI (including some basic hands-on) the companies won't even consider my resume just because I am currently not working on those roles/I do not have industrial project experience. So the lateral switch seems to be a bit difficult. Maybe in the same field it's easier.

And they ask architect level questions to an entry level guy. :') how sad is that.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working as a contract TAS for 6 months in a medical device company. I started part time and as it became busier/my trainer quit, I became full-time. I applied for the TA position through corporate and would like some insight. the company is short staffed and my site specifically does not have good TA retention. For the salary expectation, I put in 85k which is in the range. I’m currently at 64k which is below the minimum of the range. Is this realistic?
