I am constantly surprised by how inefficient the jobs market is, especially outside of tech jobs, and especially for large employers who have to constantly recruit for many open positions.
It says they found a shortage of "Computer Systems Analysts". Is that another name for sysadmins and in-house support engineers? Is that the experience for people here? And do companies hire H1-B's for these positions?
AFAIK, they're referring to the BLS definition of Computer Systems Analyst[1]. It's basically someone that ensures the system fits the business process it's designed to address, rather than the business process having to work around the system. Depending on the particular company's structure, you may see these listed as product analyst, business analyst, business systems analyst, process analyst, etc.
As a student that wants to go into the business side of tech rather than programming, these are the jobs I've been trying to find. Unfortunately, most companies radically lowball these positions because they either (a) don't see the use for them, (b) underpower them, or (c) the term is being misused as a glorified tech writer.
