This is a contractor engagement placed on ApTask's W-2 payroll. You receive full benefits (medical, dental, 401(k), PTO) during the engagement, timesheet-based weekly pay, and a dedicated recruiter who stays your point of contact throughout. Many of our contract engagements extend or convert to permanent; the recruiter will share the current client history during your call.

What is the compensation for this role?

The compensation for this Business Analyst role is calibrated to market for Jersey City, NJ and the specific experience level the client is targeting. Where you land depends on validated years of experience, the depth of your stack match, and — for contract engagements — the bill-rate the client has locked in for this requisition. The recruiter will discuss the exact number during your calibration call.

How quickly does the interview process move?

ApTask's benchmark on this vertical is 19 days on average from résumé submission to signed offer — driven by validated, pre-verified profiles and a client relationship where the hiring manager reviews our shortlist within 48 hours. If your profile is a fit for this role, you can expect the recruiter's first call within one business day.

What technical skills does the Business Analyst role require?

The client is targeting depth in Business Analyst. Adjacent experience is welcome — we routinely place candidates whose exact stack match is 60-70% when the underlying pattern (distributed systems, regulated-data handling, or comparable) is strong. Bring the full stack breadth to your calibration call; the recruiter will map it onto the client's evaluation scorecard.

Candidates are validated against the specific enterprise tooling the client runs (ServiceNow, Jira Portfolio, Clarity, Planview) and their prior track record in comparable-scale programs, not generic delivery experience.
