What are you doing now that you would consider a back office finance role at a government contracting company?

SAIC was an incredible place for a long time, but unfortunately over the last decade or so has plunged in terms of quality, talent, and culture. I would avoid if you have any other attractive options

We have a stock purchase plan, buy at a 5% discount I think you have to hold it for a year before cashing out. If they offered stock options for your position I'd get that in writing on your offer

I am a Business Analyst. I dont have direct experience but I do have a CI Poly which is why they are considering me

...this sounds like a back office support role

2. Had to attend every requirement call and as well as technical review calls. (When BA is not good, need to provide acceptance criteria points).
3. Providing and justifying resource/work estimates.
