SAP Certified Consultant but no experience except teamsap academy training?

Hi,
I am SAP CERTIFIED SD CONSULTANT but I have no experience in SAP except 30 DAY training from authorized SAP Academy.
I took the SAP SD Certification couple of years ago and a comprehensive one month training for Authorized Academy. I was not able to start career in SAP for personal reasons
Now I want to start SAP career. What should be my first step.
Since i took the training and passed certification years ago, what should i do now.
I want to share and ask for some feedback before i take any step.
Any feedback really appreaciated

Hi,
I don't think that you can have access to SAP Systems, but license is given to SAP customer/partner to access SAP systems. In our case we can pay for 3rd party who can install SAP ECC ..Max of 1500 bugs (U can find them in non-authorized training centers).
As u are SAP SD Certified Consultant , u can get into support operations.
Kindly update ur profile with Email ID in ur Business card, it will be easy for me to send few learning stuffs on SD !!
Thanks

Oppurtunity for SAP PS Certified Consultant (Fresher)

Hi
A mere Certification does not helps in giving entry into SAP Implementation . Every where the companys ask only experience .
without giving oppurtunity to a fresher dont know how the supply of experienced persons is meet ? . The organizations has to understand this .
And another point to discuss the company is ready to hire a fresher computer science or a Electronics and communication graduate and train him in SAP modules and use him in Implementation project . But a certified consultant is not considered for the same.
If this is the case then SAP has to restrict giving certification to anybody ? and Impose some restrictions for certification.

Hi John,
You should have tried for ABAP, as there are requirements for fresher in ABAP.
In functional side it is difficult to get into the Business if you are a fresher, as there is a general believe that freshers don't understand business well so cannot be taken in as a Functional consultant..
How did you opted for SAP PS? Are you an MBA grad or Engg??
Good Luck with your job hunt..

SAP- SD Consultant Job Opportunities

Dear Experts,
Myself Daniel. I have done BE (e & c) and also MBA ( marketing & systems). Currently, I am having 2 years experience in Sales Industry ( FMCG ). Thats one of the best FMCG Companies in the World. Now 2 years of Domain experience is not much i know, but, i believe i have have acquired a thorough knowledge in Sales. Now, i want to move on to SAP. My seniors are telling me to go for SD Module. I am thinking of admission in an authorized SAP training institute. People at the institute said that SD Module suits me best, but i want to know from you experts. Please guide me. They( the institute people) say that SD Module is the most demanding in terms of job opportunities. But having gone through different threads here its contradicting. The authorized SAP training institute guys are saying that they will also ASSIST me in getting a job but they cant GUARANTEE it. fare enough. But i want to know about the current job opportunities as a Certified SAP SD Consultant in todays market from experts.
Please help me in this, i would be grateful.
Thanks,
Dany

Hi Daniel,
All your points are valid, but unfortunately that's the state of affairs as of now. Getting an SAP Certification is equivalent to "I have learnt this SAP course from this Authorized Training Center". And that's the end of it.
Not many companies will hire you just because you have an SAP Certification. Coupled with the fact that getting an SAP Certification is quite an expensive affair (at least in India - I don't know where you are from...) the entire idea is a joke IMO.
And from the looks of it, it doesn't look like SAP is going to change this trend any time soon. Before jumping into the Certification bandwagon, do read some of the agonizing tales of freshers like you, who have done Certification and still looking for a job.
Im not trying to discourage you, but you should know the facts before making a huge investment in terms of time and money so that you can make an informed decision.
Good Luck!

Sql for sap functional consultant

Hi sap consultants,
I have a query related to sql for functional consultant.
My question is what is the use of sql for functional consultant and what is the future prospect
after learning it, means will it help in career growth in sap and also to build my candidature strong.
Please suggest me regarding this.will highly appreciate your replies.
Thanks in advance.

Prafulla,
Have a look at some of the blogs collected under SAP Career Blog Links. Your best route to becoming an SAP Functional specialist is to work your way into the support group of the company in which you already work. Experience is more important than the certificate. Get your experience supporting SAP as an SAP CRM specialist first, THEN get your certificate.
If you try to do the reverse, you're signing up for a lot of heartache (see blogs in the previous link page). Whatever you do... do NOT quit your job to sign up for training/certification on the hopes that you'll find a job easily after you are certified. End user experience is better than nothing, but does not necessarily "count" as experience when you're trying to get a job for the first time as a functional specialist.
Only AFTER you've been a specialist for a while does the end user experience add clout to your credentials as you can say " I've experienced the FULL spectrum of SAP" while folks who never had the end user experience seem somewhat lacking by comparison.
So *eventually*, end user experience + specialist experience + certification = more than the sum of the parts.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
--Tom

Career as SAP analyst/consultant

Hi,
I am exploring the option to build my carrier in SAP analyst/consultant field.
I have more than 5 years of experience of sales and business management in automotive industry. At the same time I have worked on or used SAP as a business user for these 5 years.
I am quiet conversant with the business process, material movement, orders/approval flows etc.
I have the desire and will but I am looking for some answers to convenience myself that it will be a good decision to move in this direction financially and in terms of career growth also. It would be a big help if you could answer the questions below, before I make my final decision. I would request you SAP Gurus to please guide me.
Some of the agencies (AtoS and some others) I have got in touch with to discuss this certification have suggested doing SAP SD or MM certification, keeping my experience in view. If I do it what is your guess how soon I could find a job with this certification.
What kind of salary will I be able to attract if I do get a job. Currently I am getting good salary by auto industry standards (around $15K). As per the information I have got the starting salaries in these roles are some times less than half of what I am getting now.
Finally how fast is the growth in this industry? Let us say I do the certification spend some $500 and join a company with salary less than half of my current. After doing this, as per your experience how soon will I be able to reach or exceed the salary I would have been getting otherwise (assume I perform fairly well in my SAP role ;-).
So finally should I go ahead with the certification?
Rather than an instinctive one, I want to make a well thought over, planned and fairly well estimated decision. I am looking forward to your valuable answers.
Thanks

I am trying to reply all the bullets in your post one by one.
Some of the agencies (AtoS and some others) I have got in touch with to discuss this certification have suggested doing SAP SD or MM certification, keeping my experience in view. If I do it what is your guess how soon I could find a job with this certification.
for training and certification you can go to any SAP authorized institute , you can find many depends upon which country you are presently staying.
What kind of salary will I be able to attract if I do get a job. Currently I am getting good salary by auto industry standards (around $15K). As per the information I have got the starting salaries in these roles are some times less than half of what I am getting now.
if you are already at $15K (1,50,000 US Dollar if i correctly understand) then you are earning much higer then a SAP consultant having a decade experience in SAP. Better look for management job. If salary is the criteria.
Finally how fast is the growth in this industry? Let us say I do the certification spend some $500 and join a company with salary less than half of my current. After doing this, as per your experience how soon will I be able to reach or exceed the salary I would have been getting otherwise (assume I perform fairly well in my SAP role ;-).
refer the above one
So finally should I go ahead with the certification?
Certification is optional , if you just have user level experience you may not be knowing all what comes within an module, i still recommend training as it give you all back ground about SAP and you can understand most of the master data piece to create a right foundation for a module.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks

SAP certified fresher

Hi Everyone,
i am a sap certified associate in financial accounting and i have completed my certification successfully last month.I just want to get clarified with some of the questions which i mentioned below.
1.Getting a job as a sap certified fresher is very tough is it so? i have been searching jobs in many job portals for one month but every where i could see there is lot of vacancies only for experienced candidates why not for freshers?
2. Can anyone suggest me some of the job portals where i can find fresher vacancies more?
3. What should i do consecutively to get a job?
I have also registered in sap careers India. I got a specific user id where only the certified candidates could get but all i need now is mentoring from the people who have pursued their career in sap. I would feel great to all if i have been directed to the right path.
Thank you

Hi Sara,
You have to do work hard to get the first job in SAP.
1. Connect with software companies HR's in Linkedin as they share jobs.
2. Follow company pages in Linkedin as they post the jobs in their pages.
3. Follow company pages in Facebook and Twitter as well.
4. List 50 consulting companies through major job portals and talk to consulting HR 3 to 5 people everyday.
5. Connect with most of SAP known guys because fresher walk-ins come to employees inbox.
6. I feel twitter posts are better because when you search in twitter post, it will give exactly email and contact details of job posting.
You need to strike everywhere as something will click for you.
Best of luck.

Hellooooooo Exeperts,
Need few answers in understanding the SAP BW Workflow in a Company..Any ANswers to the questions would be highly appreciated as this would help me in making it easier before joining my job..
Please answer the below questions concering an OFFSHORE
BW Consultant working for Imlementation Project..Bcoz thats where i would be standing
1) what exactly are the responsibilities of an SAP BW Consultant in implementation Project?
how does they differ from development project?
2) how will be the work flow right from creation of the project specs (both technicaland functional) to the go-live implementation, how does the peolpe at various hierarchy levels fit in this scenario? like who creates the specs, wher do they send it, who is responsile to verify them? from which point SAP BW Consultant is involved in project, whom should he report to? this kind of work flow..( Related to OFFSHORE DEVELOPMENT CENTER)
3) What r the responsibilities of onshore and offshore people in an implenentation project,what do u mean by a client steering committee, how r they seperate from the rest of the people in the project?
4) How would a technical spec look like any screen shots?......how do they come to u in a soft
or hard copy?....Whom do u approach in case of any clarifictions?....can you specify how the
offshore development centre hierarchy is defined who r the people involved here?
5)Wher will an implementation BW Consultant work in real time( Dev, Prod, or sand box)servers.
after creating the objects needed we transort to QA, how will be the work flow related to
transportation of objects and work flow of handling transport request errors when they arise?
like who reports the errors to whom? this ort of flow..
6) whats the duration of work in DATA Modelling part of the project, how much time does it

>I am interested to find out , what all could be the roles of a PI consultant in a given SAP implementation barring the usual Interface design and implementation. ?
Some knowledge in basis and PI admin is an added plus as I have found from experience that basis is not quite sure of how to solve PI basis issues and many a time comes back to the consultant for help/clarification.
Roles would obviously depend on the project scope but in general we can put them as design, develeopment, testing, some basis/admin roles, scope determination as to where we need to use PI etc.
>In an average, how much of Functional knowledge , a PI consultant would require to have to be successful in an END-END implementation???
Some functional knowledge will always be an added plus but considering that a PI consultant might need to work with different areas, so knowledge in all such areas is definitely not possible.
>What other skills are expectant out of a PI consultant to make him stand apart?
some basic java knowledge (string handling, java beans), Abap knowledge plus knowledge in the SOAP protocol, xml/xsd handling, SOA is sometimes required.

SAP CERTIFIED DEVELOPMENT PROFESSIONAL - ABAP SYSTEM INTERFACES WITH SAP

Hello Experts
I am Atush Rohan, I have done my "SAP Certified Development Associate - ABAP with SAP NetWeaver 7.0" on 3rd April 2009.
I want to appear for "SAP Certified Development Professional - ABAP System Interfaces with SAP NetWeaver 7.0". I have about 3 and half years or experience in SAP ABAP. And I plan to give this certificate exam in the coming 6 months.
Could you please tell me how i apply for this exam, and whether SAP provides the certificate material for the exam "P_ABAP_SI_70". Waiting for a positive reply.
Regards
Atush Rohan

hi,
actually you can find your sid on your certificate itself ... your sid will start with SXX .. ok now along with this you will receive an envelope in which there would be an letter where detalis regarding your sid and password for login access in sap market place will be stated... so you can login with that in server market place.... usually you get this along with the certificate and is being provided by the centres authority... now if you have not received it so you need to contact your centre and tell them to give it to you... if they dont barged then you can ask them for the concern guy's email .... this guy is the one who receives all the documents relating with your certificate .. now this guy is someone from sap labs banglore ... also if you have not received your id card so you can mail him or tell your centre authority in that case now usually the centre guys take the matters lightly ...
ok and as far as your certification exams goes i did search the pearson website they really dont have that professional certification for the abap guys but they do have one for functionals and some other....
ok now you need to approach yout nearest certification centre in that case and simply ask them that you need to appear for level 2 certification also you can contact the sap labs banglore in that case but i know that they are not responding .....
so in that matter you tell your centre that you need to schedule the certification they will charge you the certification amount and then will schedule the date..... yes they can do that.
hope this will surely help you!!!
thanks & regards,
Punit Raval.

Difference between Business Analyst SAP SD and SAP SD consultant

Hi friends
I need openion about what is difference between Business Analyst SAP SD and SAP SD consultant.
Raj

Both the roles are more likely the same, In consulting companies like IBM, Deloitte , TCS and others SAP functional anlayst is a more popular term but if you work directly with a SAP client - SAP Business Analyst is what they refer to a functional anlayst. Most of the responsibilities are same but they are some roles which require more of ANALYST person who can gather requirements, GAP Analysis, IS - TO BE and etc and less of configuration or customization in SAP therefore they sometimes call it SAP Business Analyst but in both cases the configuration knowledge and experience about specific modules is required.
Thanks
