Believe in always finding a way to make something better.  Taking this journey together has led us through some exciting new paths that are bringing about true change for the better.

Welcome BusinessAnalysisJobs.com to the BA Collective community.

We believe in change for the better. We believe that means that, now more than ever, leaders need ways to connect with the skilled business analysts that can successfully facilitate change within their organizations and markets. This site was created to help reduce the barriers between those leaders looking to evolve, adapt, and grow their organizations and the business analysts that can connect the people, processes, and technology required to make it all happen.

Employers can post their openings for $10 at BusinessAnalysisJobs.com (versus hundreds at the more general catch-all job boards) and reach the focused group of skilled BA practitioners they need to move their organizations forward.

It's about getting the right people in the right place at the right time to help our companies, markets, and communities keep moving in the right direction.

Business Analysis DocumentsWhen I had first started working in the Information Technology world, I innocently asked my boss how to use some legacy software used by the enterprise for which I worked. I was told, “RTFM.” I pretended I knew what that meant and sulked away to try and find out the meaning of that acronym. It was before the advent of the internet, so it took me awhile to determine the true meaning. To borrow from the Christmas Classic, “A Christmas Story,” I learned it meant, “Read the Fudging Manual.” Only my boss didn’t mean “Fudge.”

Nothing seems to inspire the wrath of the common business worker as the topic of documentation. No one likes to read it. And because of that no one likes to write it. It is hard to blame people for not reading documentation. When is the last time you picked up a user manual? It’s probably been awhile. No one even prints documentation anymore. You can maybe find an odd PDF file here or there, and then you have two choices: you can print it out and kill a few trees at your own expense, or you can read it online. Most people don’t do either.
