Dear nigamAMBRISH:

As you already have experienced, that
Your business experience in Service Sector, including Business Manager, and
Your capacity in "handling a large team and hubs" and
Your SAP FI certification
are not supportive enough to land you a job of your request and expectation.

The answer to your question "Can I look forward a lucrative opportunity in near future or will have to make some compromise initially?" depends on the three crucial following factors:
How long can you survive financially?
(Crucial Factor Number one)
How much longer can you keep your mental health on a competitive level?
(Crucial Factor Number Two)
How soon the luck can find you?
(Crucial Factor Number Three)

The market is in many cases react brutally because you get hired only if the hiring company still can make a profit from hiring you. In order for them to make a profit, they must be certain that you are capable enough for the job. And sometimes, a (clearly qualified) candidate is simply rejected because the hiring company does not have enough opportunity to know the (clearly qualified) candidate under the circumstances of the case (How soon the luck can find you? Crucial Factor Number Three).

At the time that you finally reach the point that the Crucial Factor Number One and Crucial Factor Number Two are reality. It is too late!

Conclusion:
Plan in advance to compromise!

Be realistic: Get a foot into the door is better than where you are at the current time! (You will recognize, if you look back at today from the future, that you have had a very hard time to build your career and it will form your personal character to become the leader on your chosen field. You will understand more of your profession, not only from the perspective of technical, and you will be able to lead, not only more effectively but efficiently)

It is known that it always is easy said than done! (But a (wo)man must do what she has to do, this also includes you!)

Subject: From non-IT domain to SAP FI

Dear Gurus,

Recently I made a bold decision to switch from Finance having domain experience exceeding 10 Years to SAP FI, luckly I got certified too, but disappointed with very poor & dismal to no response from employers. AM I on wrong track or there is no road from me for future.

I am really fixed at the mid of the road ? Can someone guide me? I am not a CA, but holds a very rich exposure to Service Sector. as a business manager, handling a large team and hubs. Do I qualify to explore my career as project manager / team manager rather than a developer. I rate myself excellent as process developer. Can I look forward a lucrative opportunity in near future or will have to make some compromise initially
