Business Analyst (Entry Level) Rotation Program - Buffalo, New York

First Year Associate Program for Business Analysts
This program is an onboarding of 6 candidates into 3-6 business units. Our recruitment of candidates is rigorous and thorough. These individuals will have a full year of dedicated onboarding which will involve a rotation to the various selected business units. While each candidate may be prequalified for a specific business unit, the rotation will allow not only for more comprehensive understanding of Net at Work solutions, but also a decision early on for a best match. The group will operate as a team for much of the initial training, sponsored by our People and Learning Department. They will also work independently on the assigned business units. There will be three rotations in all. Each rotation assignment will be six weeks where the first week of each rotation is attendance of Net at Work Academy (a part of Net at Work University). At the completion of the rotation cycles, candidates will be assigned to a specific business unit.
For the first five months, candidates will be assigned a group mentor from People and Learning team who they will meet with twice a week, once as a group and once in a one-on-one session. They will be closely monitored for any open issues or concerns. Assessments from training will be reviewed as will feedback from respective consulting managers. Periodic team events will be held such as lunches and visits (some in person; some virtual) to client sites. At the end of this phase, First Years will be assigned their permanent placement.
This role is currently designed as a hybrid work model, that is, both in office and remote.
