That’s a fantastic skill to have! Based on your interests, you might want to consider a career as a Business Analyst. Business analysts are responsible for helping companies improve their operations and procedures, reduce costs, and identify inefficiencies. They work on project teams and analyze business problems using technical solutions. They also create system documentation and user manuals, work on multiple projects at once, and understand an organization’s processes as they relate to a project’s goals.
