A month ago, it was only a contentious YM status which resulted to incessant messages from my friends online. One of them even asked what school I chose to enroll in. I assumed he thought that I am getting one of those Masteral Degrees. And yes, I was right!
Today, it completely submerged into my whole system that it's not just a YM status! and that I am no longer working with the AFS team, the only project on which I ingested my 2.5 years in my previous company! and the answer is "to BA"!
In all honesty, it was an arduous decision. I even created a matrix to have a more lucid snapshot of what I'll be getting and losing from each company not only in terms of salary (I'll choose Okere then) but also benefits, trainings, people and travel opportunities - the superlative of all! and this time, not only on the environment that I have to adjust to but also to the line of work. I have been in the field of QA for almost 5.5 years and have to admit that I have learned to value it (even if nakakapeste at times). It thought me how to dance with the tempo of IT world and to sing with the melody of IT professionals. I have been seeing my future in this field, really, however, just woke up one morning yearning for something more.
Now, those 5.5 years of solid QA work will just be a history in my resume for I have shifted a career. "QAe TO BA", sounds the same but focus of effort is different. I'm very much looking forward to meet different clients and practice my english tongue twisters, hehe. I'm a bit edgy though but, I want to optimistic about it.
FYI: This is my second Thursday here, and I'm thrilled to face more coming Thursdays as a BA. I started with the case study yesterday as part of the training and I have completed the first two parts of the Business Requirements doc and have to deal with the rest today however, I'm still blogging... haha :P
Tzaitzein... wish me luck...
