How to ger through SAP HCM certification test?
Hi friends,
I have to take SAP HCM certification exam on 29th july. kindly provide some tips and advice to get through it.
Mukesh SumanHi,
I feel certification is about complete remembering of the 4 books which SAP provides.
Some tips while answering the questions is try to answer those questions first which you are 80-100 % sure.
Then answer the rest questions.
Everyone told me if you give 3-5 contnous wromg answers and submit them you will not certify.
Thus be sure to give continous right answers by answering the once you are completely sure.
On the type of questions part :
1. Employee subgrou grouping personnel subarea grouping questions are a must, e.g To which of the below personnel subare grouping can be done a) Work schedule b)Basic pay etc
2. Holiday Calendar- Moving Holiday and non-moving holiday-Types of Holidays
3.On Basic pay Infotype- Payscale groups and levels fundamentals
4. Wagetype characteristics table, each field be sure
5. Indirect evaluation INVAL A, B.,C,D-PRZNT, SUMME
6.Features : ABKRS,NUMKR,- and remember all features in the book must be around 15
7. Work schedule generation steps
8. Time Evaluation Types- In IT 0007 you have the types
9. Positive time - which of the below are true for positive time
10.Negative time - same question
11. Payroll area ; 1 scenario with different dates and frequency, suggest how many payrolll areas.( Draw diagram in a paper like circles and suggest how many)
12.Solution Manager: Try to get 100 % in this area. This is very small section in the book.
13. Personnel actions definition
14. Definition of all components of Personnel structure and Enterprise structure
15. Definition of schema
Basically all topics in the book 1 question.
Remeber in certficatin ther are no queries on the table Names like t512d in general. All they ask is concepts and fundamentals.
For this remebering the book is very important.
All the best and relax. When u see the first question don't start feeling you dont know, keep a positive mindset and high concentration you will get through.

Is SAP HCM training/certification worth taking a risk and money?
I am based in one of the metro cities and have around 5 years of experience in HR-Recruitment field, current working with a big5 consulting firm. I sense a very slow career growth in my field and am planning to go for a SAP HCM certification. I checked with ATOS and they are charging a whopping amount of 4 Laks.
The amount is very high and also I fear of losing my current role. I am unable to decide shall I go ahead with my plan or shall I continue doing my current job.I was also have 6 years of functional experience before coming into this field. I took a drop of one year, and studied for certification. I was based in a small town where there was just one good company into SAP. So I joined that, gained good knowledge and learned how to deal with the clients. Worked there for 3 years at a low salary (it was quite low. But in metros you have good options, so you might expect more, and this was 4 years back, so that time in small town like Indore, the salary was very low as compared to Indore). Now I am in Mumbai, and earning a very good package. It surely takes time, but within this span of time, your money will be refunded to you. If you get a good branded company, it can be repaid within a year.
So, I would suggest, do try for this, and clear your certification, which will give you added advantage. Do not bother if you get a small company at an initial level. Rather I would suggest to try for a small company first, as you get to learn a lot from there. In MNC, you will have limited scope. But if you go for a small company at an initial level, your learning will be good. But yes, package will be less. I feel at initial stage in SAP career, package should not be the constraint. If you do your work sincerely, and honestly, you definately get paid in future with a good reward.
So I would suggest, do go for the certification. If you cannot afford the classroom training, go for online training (which I had also done), it might be cheaper than the classroom training.
All the best, and do your best.

Hi,
I have three years of HR Domain experience and planning to do SAP HCM Certification by OLT
Is this helpful for me to get job in the industry as a fresher for SAP HCM or my domain experience will count to get Job
Kindly Guide me...
Regards,
Poonam Sainihi Poonam ,
From your questions , I can tell u this :
In my view core experience is needed to understand the business process clearly , but at the same time you would have to know how to apply these understanding in SAP .
for e.g :
In recruitment , you will have vacancies , for which you put ad , then get potential candidates , screen them ,complete levels of interview , finalize the candidate and then Hire them .
so the same thing you will have to do in SAP too , but you would have to know how you would all this in SAP ,so you would need to understand how configuration is done in SAP .
so the bottom line is , you will have to undergo some sort of training in SAP HCM , to start working on it .
let me know if this answers your question .
Please give points if you like this answer . -
Hello,
I am Jisul. I was working as an HR generalist for past 6 years with a reputed company. I had to leave my job due to personal reasons in April, 2014. In the meantime, I decided to go for SAP HCM certification as I thought it would be an extension to my domain knowledge. Now that I have completed my certification and am ready to take up a job, I find that all the jobs listed on portals require SAP implementation experience. I do not have any prior experience in SAP field.
Please helpHi Jisul,
as you are in NCR, and have worked already 6 yrs. , so just ask to your concerns about the company name where SAP HCM has been implemented, please understand one thing that getting a job as an fresher is to tough, so you have to struggle hard in achieving it.
Please update your resume in all leading job portal on regular basis, and send your resume to all local consultancies firm too, because many mid size company hires only through local consultancies. -
SAP HCM Or Oracle HCM Module - Certification
Hi,
I always wanted to ask the expert before I take a jump on my career, can any one please help me. To give you a little back ground on my profile, before I ask the Golden Question. I am currently not working and have a solid 3 + Years of Exp in Recruitment and post recruitment.
Which is the best certification SAP HCM or Oracle HCM Module?
Can any one answer the above question with lot of data keeping the current MARKET Condition?
I have been asking lot of people on this subject, most of them are not able to give me the proper information. Awaiting your expert advice.
Warm Regards,
ZulfikarlosHi,
Go for SAP HCM. Eventhough Oracle is taking over many companies, SAP still prevails.
My suggestion is that, first you try to get a job in your domain. It's better if you join a company who practices SAP. So that, you can have first hand experience on the SAP HCM/HR.
Then try doing the Certification.
You would have taken certification, if you were a fresher. As such you have 3+ years exp.
Generally for any job opportunity, employer will look for the candidate who is currently working if he is not a fresher.
While you working you can get certification with eLearning. Now so many institutions are offering this. Also, the fees is 50% less.
All the best.

Hello Everyone,
I wanted to know the scope of doing SAP HCM/HR Certification.... PLEASE HELP...!!!
I have done B.Tech in computer Science in the year Aug 2012. After that i started my first job with Collabera Inc. as a Technical Recruiter in Jan 2013 at Vadodara (Gujarat) and still working.
I am now looking for a career change and interested in doing SAP HCM/HR Certification.
I would really appreciate if you can guide me through, and suggest me some good institutes which can provide SAP HCM/HR Certification.
Location is not a problem I can relocate anywhere in INDIA.
Thank you for supportDeepak,
Please read some of the posts which can be found at SAP Career Blog Links. Prospects for someone with no experience and just certification are poor, as you will see from the blogs behind the previous link. Please see Advice for Recent College Graduates (aka "Freshers").

Preparation for SAP HCM Associate Certification Exam
Hi,
I am preparing for SAP HCM Associate Certification exam, and I have got only five days in my hand.
I want to know how can I utilize these five days in preparation very effectively, basically on which portion of the syllabus I must give more importance.
I also want to know at what level the toughness of the questions are asked in certification weather it is direct questions/tricky questions or just basics questions.
I have tested my skills in www.daypo.net where I found the questions asked on this website for practice was very tough. I have scored only 34% out of 80 questions.
Currently I have four materials THR10_1, THR10_2, THR12_1 & THR12_2, is that there will be direct questions from this materials.
I want to pass the certification.
Can anyone please help me out.
Regards,
Kunal SinhaHi Kunal
I was going through the questions online, some of them are easy ones and some of them require hands-on experience in SAP HCM,
I am new to SAP HCM and planning to write the SAP HCM exam soon, The online sample questions for SAP HCM are mostly based on the practical knowledge of configuration, is there a book available through which I can practice real case scenarios so that I can have better understanding of SAP HCM to give the exam. Any suggestions and exam related info is appreciated.
Please reply.
Thanks so much
