What type of roles can Sap Consultants look for outside consulting world? I have been thinking about the switch to Industry but my resume is not able to articulate that since it’s so Sap consulting heavy. Looking for some guidance on applying for Technical Program Manager or Product Manager roles and how to best prepare for that transition ?

Big Tech is possible without M7 but you are going have to really change your resume

Few Pointers:

Remove SAP from your resume entirely and replace it with something like “cloud based technology platform” and replace “implementation” with “digital strategy”

Do not mention any module as it wouldn’t matter

For starters show more about the business value and impact in terms of dollars and also understanding of user personas and experience from the user perspective

Network with alumni especially if from target school but even if you are not, try to find something in common and go for it

Best of luck OP!!

Tonnes of roles. Module specific, industry specific, Basis, ABAP… any company that is a SAP house will have multitude of roles. You need to ID what industry and module you are good at and then surface if you are a technical or a functional consultant.
