An analyst was a type of job. In the time of the Imperial Era, Chellwinark Frethylrin held a position as an analyst for the Galactic Empire. She described her role as a "people-watcher," until she deserted the Empire. Kidi Aleri also worked for the Empire as a signals analyst before her own desertion. On At Attin, being an analyst was one of several jobs in the bureaucracy that citizens could have. Nooma, a female Myykian, worked in this capacity, and her son Neel wanted to follow in her footsteps and become an analyst himself when he got older.
