2. How should I go about the training part and the job search part.

3. How can I get practice in SAP CRM and are there any server logins available online?

4. In which kind of companies can I look for a job in SAP CRM in India.

Hi Narayan,

Welcome to SCN. My first advice to you is to have a proper display name. Secondly, please search before posting. Most of the beginner career-related queries are already answered in some form or the other. Of course I understand that everybody's career is distinct but then the questions asked by you are generic. Here are my responses to your queries:

1. Is SAP CRM the right module for me? Which other functional module can provide me with better opportunities.?

Response: Since you have not mentioned what your educational background is and in what domain you were a "Consultant" and in what areas you are interested in, my answer is "I Dont Know"

2. How should I go about the training part and the job search part.

Response: If I were in your shoes, I would do a little bit of "asking-around" with friends and relatives in my city as to which training centers offer good training and guidance and get trained. Then I post my Resume in all the job portals and read newspapers to look for Walk-in Interviews. I would also go to the websites of all the prominent IT Consulting companies and create a profile there. I also get in touch with all my friends who work in IT companies and ask them to keep an eye for "Referrals" and "Walk-ins".

3. How can I get practice in SAP CRM and are there any server logins available online?

Response: The training institutes usually give you access to their servers either remotely or in their "labs", for the duration of the course and an additional 5-6 months.

4. In which kind of companies can I look for a job in SAP CRM in India.

Response: Most consulting companies have a pool of CRM resource. You can find out such information either through their websites or through friends working there or through the kind of requirements they post.

5. I am positioned in Delhi, what are the avenues for SAP here in NCR.

Response: I've never been to Delhi, but I know for a fact that there are enough opportunities in SAP there for the simple reason that there are a lot of IT Consulting companies.
