Hi, I was contacted by contractor about a job, but he was talking about improving SAS17 processes. I was lost, what is it?

Do a search.

I find multiple candidates. One is about Airline flight tracking.

Ask the source.

He is recruiter not contractor. Here one of his message from our chat

" The survey is part of a pilot program to investigate the use of SAS Viya as an option for improving performance and functionality. In addition, existing SAS17 processes need to be reviewed with the goal of implementing them using SAS Viya, for improved performance."

I didn't get the SAS17

A number that follows a reference to SAS software would normally refer to a version. AFAIK there is no such version. If you search on the SAS Support site for "SAS17" (no space) you will get the response No Results.

I mean contacted by a recruiter not a contractor on LinkedIn. Here one of his message from our chat:

Thanks!

I have never heard the term SAS17.

What industry is the recruiter referring to?

In my experience recruiters often get their wires crossed. I strongly suspect this is one of those cases.

You ask the person using the term, it's not a common term in SAS and the recruiter either got the term wrong, mistyped and hit 7 instead of 9, or is using an internal term to the company.
