Thinking of changing my domain and company. Leaning towards business analyst roles, even though I have the relevant skills not finding leads, it's straight away a "no' from wherever applied. Anyone has any suggestions?
3YOE in a similar role but not exactly in BUSINESS ANALYST role yet, more of a consultant/advisor.

It might be worth it to pay to have your resume professionally reviewed and revised. There are tons of freelance platforms that can help. With your experience, I don't see why you wouldn't at least get screened by a recruiter. Where are you applying? That could also be a factor.

It might make sense to try at a smaller company first to get some experience with that exact job title.

Revisiting your resume and/or portfolio to switch up verbiage and gear the content to support getting a more business analyst role could help. A1 made a great suggestion in hiring someone to work your resume with you

I agree with the comments posted. If you're looking to switch up to a new or a totally different post or a position, you need to understand the demands of the new role and mould the present role's working so as to showcase that the previous and the new role have some things in common which in turn helps you in leading. Try to inculcate the new role's major keywords and important points in your resume so that when the system evaluates your doc, it has got the relevant things to push the application forward. Hope it helps.

A1 makes a VERY good point about professional resume rewrites. I thought it was overrated at first but ended up doing it when I was trying to switch fields etc - it made a HUGE difference. There's a lot of ways to reposition your experience as a consultant/advisor, but sometimes it's better for someone on the outside to take that and run with it because you can't always see yourself in that same light

Thoughts on CAIA? Difficulty, hours studied, study tips, overall experiences, etc.? I’ll be sitting for Level 1 in September.

I’m almost one year out of undergrad (econ background) so a lot of the CAIA content is new to me

Have a chat with a recruiter coming up early next week around a Business Strategy Director role at Salesforce. Its in their Customer Success Group.

Thanks a bunch!
