After doing SAP consulting for two years, post undergrad, it seems like the biggest waste of time and best way to pigeonhole your career. The skills seem non-transferable to anything else besides another ERP product. I will be leaving the SAP domain in hopes I can eventually find a solid exit opportunity. Thank you for reading.

Move to Salesforce, sell the enterprise software bs, skills imo are a lot more transferable but you still work on proprietary pos software.

Nah. I did tech implementations and used that to move to the business side. You develop a lot of process knowledge with SAP or anything else and that can translate well. My client business partners hired me after one project then I jumped after 2 years to another job in industry with a 70% TC increase. I did a lot of SAP APO.

Why do you feel that SAP skills are not good to have ? Please explain and elaborate your thoughts ?

Also, technical skills are valued more and more in “business” or “strategy” jobs. Industry jobs on the business operations or strategy side look for people with certain tool experience or hard skills.

Odd, don’t most Fortune 500 companies run Sap?

Hey all! Heading into my 4th interview at a global SaaS company this week. I have a year of product marketing experience at a startup (I'm owning all PM efforts for a massive product), and the role I applied for asked for 3-5 years of experience.

Any tips on how I can prep for these interviews? They're with a few Sr. Product Marketing Managers on the team. I've already done an HR screening, call with the hiring manager, and deeper dive with another Sr. PMM.

Any advice is appreciated!

So I had a first interview this past Friday at a company that I had previously interviewed with and made it to the final round last month. They decided to go with an internal candidate after it came down to me and him. The current role is more senior, and was one I was asked to apply for by the hiring manager, whom I also met with during the last set of interviews. I emailed the recruiter to f/u on Friday and still have not gotten a reply. Should I be concerned?
