I have 6 years of experience as a business analyst and want to pursue a course that will help me in the long run. Should I focus on Salesforce or the BFSI domain?

I think BFSI domain will be more valuable in the longer term. What certifications are you planning?

Salesforce is one of tool which is used in all the big firms, I would suggest you to do that, CPQ is in demand, I am also pursuing the same!!

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring?

Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
