is business analyst a grad level job

[dolphin_m70]

Hi all
This is my first post. I had applied for HSMP but it was rejected recently.
The reason they say is Business Analyst job is not a grad level job
i had put 4 yrs exp cert from my employers staing that i have worked for them for the resp yrs as a business analyst and as far as i know a BA requires a graduation atleast.

then i cant understand y they have rejected
they say in there reply letter that they r not satisfied that the exp letter given by the employers doesnt specify that it is a grad level job.
i already had one review

wht do u guys thk ,shud i apply for another review or shud i apply a fresh one with a diff type of exp letter from my employers

thx

Job title as "Business Analyst" is not suffecient.
Experience letter should specify roles and responsibilities equivalent to graduate level.

There is no specific format, but the duties and responsibilities you had should themselves specify that they are graduate level.

Alright just a quick question here, I haven't applied yet. I have 2 years of "Graduate Trainee" position, as the name implies, a minimum educational background of a BSc is required.

I have attached the job description, responsibilities in addition to an ad from the bank's website for the same position, all of which are stating that a degree is required.

Is that sufficient enough? Or does the job actually has to be "Graduate Level" by the caseworker's assessment?

Bsc should be expanded to Bachelor of Science, some caseworkers may not assume this.

And "Graduate Trainee", may or may not be treated as graduate level work(some one on the forum may answer this).

The job actually has to be "Graduate Level" by the caseworker's assessment.

"Graduate trainee " wont be accepted as a graduate level job. bcoz the case worker goes according to the guidance provided to him/her.
bcoz graduate trainee positions can be done by a non-grad as well which is wht they'll conclude.
im a Business Analyst and i have 4 yrs exp and the min req for a business analyst is degree level but still my app got rejected.bcoz they think it is not gradute level job as it was not specified in my exp cert by my employer.
so pls make sure tht u do ur research well b4 applying to avoid the later disappointment.
wish u luck
