Guys, I am looking to switch to SAP technology (Not happy with my current tech)
YOE: 4.1
Can anyone suggest me which is the best SAP module for the starters like me, which is quite easy to learn and also has a decent package considering my experience.
And also add any online courses you found helpful. Thanks in Advance Tata Consultancy Capgemini Accenture.

Oh would not worry. 1st years are always low. Wouldn't stress sooo much yet
LOL your fine. Your over stressing. First year that’s normal even in big law. Just do more pro Bono and always be available and eager to do work. Show enthusiasm and good work ethic and you will be there for years to come
Your totally fine as long as you are showing effort. You will be held more responsible for your billables in the coming years. Remember, they spent the whole year training you. They want to recoup there time and money and letting you go within the first 3 years doesn’t make much sense unless you do something which can cost them their reputation

What did you do?
Nothing besides typical first year mistakes and errors here and there. But the firm’s hours have been down apparently and my billables have been low as a result of lack of work this week so I’m just planning for the worst. Realistically I’m just being paranoid as I tend to worry unnecessarily.
Stop doing transactional. I switched to litigation. Best decision of my life.

Caveat: until you needed to leave firm life....and realized yout corporate friends have a lot of options....
As a first year I had two months back to back where I only billed about 50 hours for the entire month… you’re fine.
Thank God.
