Six months. Was thrown into a SAP project as a fresh hire and given designs to complete and not a whole lot of direction. Spent a lot of time Googling and asking my developers questions and eventually figured it out.

I'm in that phase right now

Generally, one full-lifecycle implementation should give you the required confidence. You should strive to be hands-on and make a conscious effort to learn, work on integration aspects, take on some functional specifications work, understand key data domains/data design for your process area, get good insights on data conversion and migration. One full-lifecycle project should give you the above exposure. Key is to be curious, be hands-on and have a focused game plan to imbibe some/all of the above aspects

It took me 3 yrs to face interviews and then I was confident when I joined lateral as full time consultant and did solutions end to end

I have been searching for job from quite a long time and all I have seeing HR/Panels asking for
1. Number of implementation projects done.
2. Work experience on S4 Hana.

And if I don't have atleast any one of these, I will not be considered.

Is it really that important ?

Being joined as a fresher - Is it really something that I can decide whether to be in support or implementation project ?

Is upgrading of ECC to S4 Hana in my hands ? And the difference is really that vast ?
