		<description>Hi all,

This a very good topic as there are people like me who have the same question in mind. I do agree that Project Experience is the key for this.
I have a smally query. I am a BPCS consultant with 3 years experience. As of now in india, the developement projects for BPCS is reduced and we get Support projects only. Also nowdays people prefer to implement SAP than BPCS. So for people like me whats your advise. Isnt certification a break in for me into SAP ?

Please provide me your valuable inputs.

Thanks,
Hema</description>

		<description>Hi this is christian stallone from gujarat, Ya that is true. because i am BE IT FRESHER and SAP ABAP certified from genovate,ahmedabad.I am finding job as fresher since last 45 days but, i didnt get good response even for interview. In india as FRESHER, If you had done certificate or not. They count you same.So no value for SAP CERTIFICATION .Its wasting of 3 lac Rs, If any fresher want to do certification then pls dont do it. Instead you can go with compnay who train pepole on SAP. Like COLLABERA. I had found that java and .NET has very good market for freshers then SAP. Who have domain experince if they go with certification then it will be good for them. BUT FOR FRESHERS ITS WORST TO FIND JOB.</description>

		<description>Hi all, 

This has been a very insightful topic to read on.I am a mid level ABAPer (3 years experience) with 2 full implementation project experience.I am thinking of getting certified in a Sales and Distribution functional role so that I have a well rounded profile in my resume.

I was wondering how useful is a certification in shifting your profile within SAP job market.(for e.g. From technical to Functional ). I have no bussiness knowledge besides the work experience as a SAP Technical consultant.</description>

		<description>I am a SAP team leader currently inerviewing applicants for an SD MM support analyst post. Few of the applicants have full SAP academy certification though many have one or two certificates in relevant modules. I see the certification as a bonus in an applicant but their experience and proven results are what made the big difference in helping me to decide which to bring forward for interview. Even then, other skills, such ability to deal with users at differing levels of seniority and SAP experience, character, and 'team fit' will play a large part in our finally selecting the successful applicant.</description>

		<description>I have more than 15 years experience in SAP implementation.  I have found the idea of certification as a glib "entry into the SAP market" has no indication of ability of the consultant.  Many people jump onto the bandwagon with dollars in their eyes and feel that this is the key to getting a job without any other experience.  Simply getting the certification is not enough and.  Any consultant in any field needs a combination of skills - and the certification should not be the only criteria.  I certainly will not hire someone who has certification just for that reason -I will hire someone generally through word of mouth and proven excellence in their field.  If they have the certfication then okay good for you too. But this was not a criteria.</description>
