I’m trying to move from USA to Europe. I am a year into SAP consulting with background as a super user. I know my experience isn’t that thorough, but I’ve wanted to move for years. Are career coaches/advisors a worthy investment? The ones on LinkedIn who help you change resume/CV, cover letter, strategize with contacting companies and interview work. Anyone ever use one? I’ve gotten close to a job a few times, but the market is more competitive now with all the layoffs

Depends , do you have a European passport? That might make things easier..

Otherwise, you need to have specific SAP skills (including possibly knowing an European language)..if you have super user experience, you might be better off getting certified in some SAP functional field which aligns to the business area you work in

Well, you will need specific skills pertaining to SAP. SAP allows cross-border transfers but there needs to be a business rationale behind it.

Hi all,

After the final interview, HR reached out and said they would like to extend an offer. HR gave a ball park of 135k - 145k base with about 15k in sign-on equity and 20k annual bonus.

After a couple of days, HR person came back with with 125k base and 20k annual bonus. No sign-on equity anymore. What should I do given that these numbers seem way lower than the initial range provided? HR claimed it’s because of “market conditions”.
