My Name is Jayanth. I am commerce graduate and Have done MBA/MCOM from Sikkim Manipal university which is a distance learning course. I graduated in the year 2002. As a fresher I joined a Electronic distribution company as a Finance executive. There I was in to end to end accounting using Tally. So for 2 years I worked there. Then I joined a BPO and worked for 2 years as a Senior Process executive. I was using SAP with limited access and was in to Accounts Payable. Currently I am working for a software company for almost 7 years in to Accounts Payable with full access to SAP (can use all transaction codes of AP/AR/GL HR module as well. Now at the age of 33 I would like to become FI consultant. Kindly advise me is this a right decision at this point of carrier/age. I heard that without proper experience it is hard to get SAP consultant job but can I use my end user experience with knowledge of FI implementation(would like to join SAP FICO course) to get in to market. Also not that our company does not have any support for SAP. Please advise can I tell the interviewer that I was doing support for our company along with Accounts Payable to get in to SAP FI consultant job market. Please reply to this ASAP as I have to take and move fast.
Regards,
Jayanth.
