Data Analyst vs Business Analyst Job Titles are a Mess #shorts

Data Analyst vs Business Analyst job titles are a mess.

In their current form, data analyst and business analyst roles are newer in the market so there's not a set standard across the board.

At the same time, companies may also choose to completely ignore the standards that ARE starting to develop and choose the title they expect will attract the best candidates in their market. This means some data analyst roles are really what we'd more commonly define as business analyst roles and vice versa.

Whether you're interested in data analyst jobs or business analyst jobs, search for both. You'll find some business analyst roles lean more technical and some data analyst jobs lean more business focused. By looking for both types of analyst jobs, you'll be more likely to find all available options for what you want.

Agree! It’s a big mess. At every company I’ve worked at these titles have been interchangeable and poorly defined.

I got one for ya, they’re both overstaffed and overpaid.
