Tell me about your involvement in systems development life cycle and user acceptance testing.

An experienced business analyst will have exposure to SDLC, which is systems development life cycle or application development lifecycle. When a business introduces new software or applications to their organization, they need to ensure the change is well planned, adequately tested, and then properly deployed company-wide. A seasoned business analyst can make this process run smoothly, saving valuable organization time, resources, and funds. Describe your experience with SDLC and user application testing. If you do not have exposure to these activities, be sure to express your interest in becoming involved and learning.

"I have worked with dozens of clients on developing a life cycle for new software or applications. As far as user acceptance testing, I have tested on groups as large as 1,000 people. I enjoy analyzing the data that comes from beta and even final-phase software testing."
