Hello,  I am a college student who is doing a research report on careers in systems analysis. I was hoping that one or more of you would take the time and ask some questions I have about your job.

If you choose to to respond please provide me with your full name.

*  1. How has your educational background helped you in your job as
    systems analyst? If it has, then how?

  * 2. How would you describe the working conditions on your job?

  * 3. What kinds of skills does a systems analysis such as yourself
    have? Did you obtain most of these skills through education or on
    the job experience?

  * 4. What industry do you work in?

  * 5. What is a typical day like for you as a systems analyst? What
    are your responsibilities and duties?

  * 6. How important are communication skills in regards to your job?
    Can you give some examples of when communication skills are needed?

  * 7. What kind of software do you use on your job? Can you give an example of how a systems analyst uses software on the job?

  * 8. What would you say is the most difficult thing about your the
    job? What is the least difficult?

  * 9. What kind of advice would you give to  someone who hopes to be
    a systems analyst in the future?

If you think there is anything else that you feel is important to mention, please feel free to add on.

I agree.  I've been meaning to answer this for a while, but without writing a 2000 word essay it's a bit hard.  Follow Adrian';s advise and you'll get more answers.

I'd like to hear your views when you finish your research.
