Hey,
I apologize if I offended anyone.  We do have postings on dice.com but sometimes we don't get the best candidates.
Since most top XI consultants look at this forum... including our team members and colleagues, we wanted to see if there are top XI consultants who we can bring on board. 
Don't take it personally.  It's a forum for discussion.

  • Junior SAP FICO Consultant job

    My name is Yunlong. I graduated on Dec. 2013. I joined a project as a SAP FICO consultant last Jun, and work there till this Jan. I also have about 2 years experience in FICO back in China. Now I am on STEM extension, it will expire on next July. I am looking for a company who is willing to offer me H1B sponsorship. Please contact me at email [e-mail address removed: violation of The SCN Rules of Engagement] if interested or have any suggestions. Thanks a lot.

    This is not the appropriate place for posting availbility for jobs; BUT, we could still make this a useful thread.
    We have many folks post that they've graduated from college and would LIKE to get a chance to learn some SAP, but can't seem to get that initial break.
    How did you manage to get picked up on a real project straight out of college? Were you recruited directly while you were still in school? Was this a paid position? An internship? Did you have any SAP training prior to getting the job? If not, did you receive any training after getting the job?
    Please tell us more as there are many, many folks on this forum that would love to be in your shoes.
    So...
    as far as finding sponsorship for H1B visa...
    Let me sugest a different way to approach this which is actually allowable in this forum.
    If you ask... "What is the best way to get H1B sponsorship for US VISA?"  Then you might get some useful answers.
    My suggestion is to google "H1B sponsorship SAP",
    When you do that, you'll get a bunch of links for job openings from companies willing to sponsor H1B visas.
    There are other ways to do this as well.
    I have heard (but do not have direct experience) about companies that will sponsor your visa as an "employer of record" (EOR). This requires a bit of explanation. I am a US citizen and use a company (which doesn't sponsor H1B visas) as an employer of record. (In Europe, they call this umbrella corporation, I believe). The way it works, is that I am essentially an independent contractor. I drum up my own business as a freelance consultant. Once I've lined up the gig, the EOR handles all of the billing, invoicing, collections, and payroll. They make sure all of the correct taxes are withheld, etc. I also have access to their insurances (errors & omisions, liability, etc) which is generally required of independent consultants as well as benefits like long term disability, short term disability, life insurance, etc. I used to use their health insurance as well, but now I use insurance that I purchased through the "Obamacare" health exchange.
    For the privilege, the EOR takes a percentage of your gross revenues. In my case, it's quite reasonable. In the case of an H1B sponsor EOR, my guess is they take a pretty big chunk.
    Anyway, I wish you luck on your search. Please post your resume on an appropriate job board (Monster, Dice, indeed, etc) and LinkedIn for future job search actions.
    Hope this helps!
    Best regards,

  • BO - Future for the SAP BW Consultant

    Hello Experts
    Can anyone (preferably from SAP themselves) explain what the future of the SAP BW/BI Consultant will be now that BO is the main focus for the future?
    What is recommended as the path forward for an existing SAP BW/BI Consultant so that they can remain employable?
    Regards
    Sean

    Think of the marriage of SAP BW and Business Objects as really being "best of both worlds". SAP BW, in the past and up to today, really doesn't have good tools for the presentation of reports and that's where Business Objects really shined.
    On the other hand, Business Objects have Rapid Marts which are great for quickly getting reporting started, but only for detailed, operational type reporting in a subject area silo approach. SAP, however, is a complete data warehouse by definition whereby you have data marts, operational data stores and star schemas in order to support analytic reporting with drilldown capabilities.
    Well, that's where SAP is going with SAP BW and Business Objects. The front-end tools will be moving to Business Objects tools where are far superior over legacy SAP front-end tools. On the back-end, the only changes being made is that Business Objects Data Integrator will be introduced into the SAP BW space for ETL of non-SAP source systems (e.g. PeopleSoft, Taxware, etc) and as a pre-PSA translation tool using extractors for SAP source systems. The standard content, whether on SAP applications or in SAP BW, that SAP has developed is not going away and is still going to be enhanced. They will, however, offer Rapid Marts as a solution for quick implementation and for smaller companies.
    So, the knowledge that any good, experienced SAP BW consultant has won't be trashed. They'll have to learn some more tools however, which isn't really a bad thing.

  • Questions WORKFLOW OF SAP BW Consultant in Project

    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
    take to model objects like cubes, ODS etc by customizing Business Content to satisfy
    business requirement?...
    7) How often do we interatct with the client or any onsite consultants?
    8) what exactly are the roles and resonsibilities of functional, technical people in SAP implementation project?
    9) Does LO's and LIS Differentiate Master and Transaction Data in the extraction Process?

    >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.

  • Some question about SAP CRM consultant

    Dear all,
          I'm a center-based consultant in china.Our company is among the first batch to run SAP CRM in china in 2006.Our version is CRM 5.0.From my two years' working experience,the status of using CRM in our company is not very good.Complex UI,sychrorize problem makes our partner not willing to use this system.
         I used to do some ABAP developing then i began to transfer to MM&SD.CRM work is the recent thing.During some months' work in CRM,i found i am more interesting in CRM.
        I want to find a new job in outside consulting company in future.I want to focus on CRM.One aspect is that i'm interested in CRM.The other is that CRM is a new product and there is not so many people doing this.However,i seems getting some worries.First,SAP CRM seems not quite mature just from my understanding in 5.0 version.We  need to develope a lot not just using User-exit.I don't know whether 7.0 has changed a lot.I've seen the UI of 7.0.It seems much better.But is it means more company will choose SAP CRM 7.0 other than Siebel?In china,there seems not many CRM projects now and i don't know the status in other countries.Second,CRM may have much differences from ERP implementation because there are many process which can't be solidified.
       In one word,i'm worried about CRM consultant's future.And i hope gurus to give me the answers.THx.

    Hi Feng
    It would be very intersting to clients as well as consultants to work on SAP CRM. Career wise you have ample opportunities in the same. With the advent of various features in CRM 7.0 version, SAP is now more user friendly and is easy to implement with lot many processes covered as a part of vanila offer.
    I wish you all the best and hope this helps.

  • SAP Platinum Consultant

    I have seen some people with title "Platinum consultant".
    When I asked this question I got very different answers.
    1. What are the required qualifications(Certifications) and/or experience to be called as "platinum consultant" for SAP-Employees and non SAP-Employees?
    2. Is it required to be endorsed by SAP AG to have that title? or anyone can keep it with certain qualifications?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    this is not a somehow protected title. It is just a ranking in the hierarchy of consultants like the following.
    Junior consultant
    Senior consultant
    Platinum consultant
    I think there are some more hierarchies possible and they are relevant for the rate a customer has to pay for such a consultant and for your wage.
    So basically the most important thing to get such a title (if you really need it) is to do good jobs in your projects and gather lots of experience.
    regards
    Siggi
    PS: I'm just a poor consultant

  • Should i Swap my career from hardware engg to Sap Basis Consultant?

    Hi,
    I am into computer hardware and networking since last 14 years. Now i am planning to go for SAP basis certification. Will it be helpful to obtain a good career? Or i should proceed towards microsoft certification only?
    What are the basic requirements to become a SAP Basis consultant?
    Thanks in advance
    Milind

    SAP Certification is always an added advantage those who are seeking a career in SAP. Just check with the Education Partners like Siemens / Genovate / Yash etc for the pre-requisites... One more important thing is SAP Certification is much difficult that Microsoft Certification. Hope this helps
