Pursuing a career in SAP-FICO or SAP HANA consultant

Former Member

Dear Bloggers,

I would like to know about pursuing career in SAP-FICO or SAP HANA consultant.

I am a BSc. graduate (Mumbai University, Major: Physics) and pursuing my Chartered Accountant from ICAI. Having 4.5 years of working knowledge in Accounting, Finance and Auditing, and also 1.6 years in process management.

Also I would like to know whether I can sit for exam and get certificate in any of the above without enrolling for training in SAP certified training Institutes, and how can I get hands-on experience to add in my Resume (which can compensate for not getting trained from SAP certified training Institutes and even transition of career).

Thank you for your time, consideration, and forthcoming response.

Regards,

Amit Chawda

Before you decide on a career, what is your passion? If it is HANA, I recommend trying the Open SAP Courses at open.sap.com. Also take a look at the Learning Journeys help.sap.com/learningjourneys

If it is FI-CO, do you have a background in accounting?

Certification Requirements depend on country https://training.sap.com/certification/

Dear Tammy,

Thank your for your response.

I am a financial accountant and want to switch my career from financial accounting to IT SAP technical consultant. (esp SAP HANA)

I am of the age 33 and also know the consequence of switching the different career, but I am prepared for it.

I need the guidance from experts and right approach to achieve my goals.

Thank you once again for your time, consideration, and forthcoming response.

Regards,

Amit Chawda
