visual trending, decision support analytics, and reporting. Some of the topics
covered:
 
 o What is BI and what is its strategic value
 o What is a data warehouse
 o Data warehouse architecture and methodologies
 o Customizing a BI approach         
                 
 
Lori Cohen is President and CEO of Conversion Services International (CSI), a

Computer Science, Lori began her career in the financial services industry as a
programmer analyst, working for Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch. She then was
a manager for Magna Software and Instinet before joining CSI about 14 years ago,
initially as VP Technology. Lori has spoken before a number of management and

Subject: Business Analyst - Integration Project Immediate Opportunities

Hi,

We are currently looking for a Business Analyst for a project opportunity with one of our major Financial Services industry clients in Hopewell, NJ. After reviewing your resume, we believe your skills are a good match for this project.

Please review the requirement detail below, and reply to this email with an updated Word version resume and your availability for work. I look forward to your reply!

Work on the client workstation platform integrating banking applications onto the brokerage platform that were not part of the original integration plan. Most of these applications are legacy applications that are currently standalone. Therefore, knowledge of integration strategies from a business perspective is imperative. Any technical integration knowledge is a plus. Will work with the technology teams who will be creating web services to hook the banking applications to the brokerage workstation (application is called CPV- Client Privacy Views). The candidates will work the entire life cycle—from requirements thru implementation. Therefore well rounded experience is needed. There may be some travel to Jax, Fla. but that will be minimal.

3+ years experience in the brokerage Industry
3+ years in banking
Knowledge of business and technical integration strategies
Able to work the entire project life cycle - inception thru testing / implementation
Work with both Technology and Business employees
MS Project

This is an immediate need, and our client is actively interviewing. Thanks in advance, for your interest and participation!
