I have a stupid question thats been bugging me;

What is the deifference between a helpdesk technician and an analyst? Ive noticed analyst positions are often advertised with higher wages and require more expirience, so I assumed it was a more senior role but I've read a few posts on here with people saying that their very first IT position was as an analyst.

I think people just use it in different terms.

My title is a technical analyst but more people would know it as a desktop support technician. Sometimes it just depends on the company you work for or in some cases it will be more problem solving and such where a technician will just swap in and out parts.
