In late 2021, Priyadharsini Ganesan, a master’s degree graduate, faced challenges securing an IT position amidst widespread job freezes and high competition. Determined to stand out in the job market, she sought specialised qualifications in business and system analysis to enhance her prospects. At this crucial juncture, she discovered ITOL’s Business Analysis Job Programme, which offers comprehensive training with globally recognised certifications.

Applying New Skills in a Real-World Role

In her role at HSBC, Priya’s responsibilities include configuring systems, designing user interfaces (UI), and ensuring alignment with project requirements.
