What entry-level positions are there in this field that an undergraduate or graduate student might consider?
In the business space of this industry, there are many BI roles. These roles involve taking data and implementing reporting or dashboards to help clients improve.
At SA headquarters, we also hire people for operations and technical recruiting roles. There are more technical degrees available that, while not strictly business, are still business-aligned.
At WP Care, there are joint degrees between the School of Computer Science and WP Care. This means there may be individuals well-suited for hybrid roles.
