Role you're checking

Help Desk Analyst

Technology

Help Desk Analysts are the first point of contact when technology breaks — they resolve hardware, software, network, and access issues submitted by employees or customers through phone, email, chat, and ticketing portals. In India, they staff the IT service desks of TCS, Infosys, Wipro, HCL, and Cognizant (servicing global clients under ITIL-governed SLAs), internal IT desks at banks (HDFC, ICICI, Axis), large enterprises, and ITES BPOs running international helpdesk operations from Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Noida. The role blends technical troubleshooting (Active Directory, Windows OS, VPN, Office 365, endpoint hardware) with structured communication, SLA discipline, and ITIL incident-management practice. Entry route is typically B.Sc IT, BCA, or Diploma in IT with CompTIA A+ or ITIL Foundation; the career ladder runs from L1 dispatcher to L2 technical analyst, L3 problem analyst, and ultimately IT Service Desk Manager or transition into broader infrastructure, cloud, or ITSM roles.
