RE:[sap-career] From SAP to Oracle?

Hi Typewriter,

Yes I am in Finance and I would prefer to go with FICO. To put a twist into the thing my CPA (certified public accountant) is from a different country then I am living in at the moment - and although both are within the EU there is no formal acknowledgement of that degree here.

On the other hand I really see no reason why I would need ACCA or CIMA for being a junior SAP FICO consultant when I have a full CPA already (and am good at it still) AND 10 yrs in SAP...

Only thing is that my current position is still that of an end-user. Config experience would be good, but companies are looking for people who already had done type of work.

So although I have got this request I might gamble and politely decline, hoping that someone somewhere will need me soon.

Cheers,

Kate_

Subject: From SAP to Oracle?

Hi Guys,

I have 10+ yrs experience in SAP as end user. Currently trying to find work as junior(!) SAP consultant.

As result of my activity I have got a call from an agent trying to get me in as "Oracle CRM OnDemand Pre-sales Consultant". I have never worked with Oracle, but heard from a few ex colleagues (also SAP-reared) no good about it.

Anybody here can compare the 2 systems from experience?

Also I haven't a clue what pre-sales consultant means and would rather appreciate an unbiased view. (Agents tend to distort job specs towards my career goal if they know what that is - at least in my experience).

Many thanks in advance,

Kate_
