Hi,

I would suggest not learning the SAP course without any experience. It would be helpful, and you can understand the subject only when you have experience in a particular domain. It is better to get a job in the HR domain, work for at least 1 year, and then go for SAP.

Definitely, pursuing an SAP course can provide you with numerous opportunities and enhance your skills. Having an MBA in HR and adding SAP to your skill set can certainly boost your career prospects in HR. In today's business environment, SAP holds significant importance and can give you a competitive edge.

In addition to the SAP course, it would be beneficial for you to acquire practical knowledge of HR functions, such as understanding ESIC, EPF regulations, and their calculations. This comprehensive approach will further strengthen your expertise in the field.

Wishing you the best of luck in your career endeavors.

I may suggest that your primary focus should be on the English language. You have written 'carrier' for 'career' and 'guidence' for 'guidance.' A good HR executive can ill-afford to make spelling mistakes.

Exploring HR Automation Beyond SAP

Also, why restrict your learning in the HR automation domain to SAP only? These days, many online, web-based HR systems are available which are highly user-friendly and require no formal training. Interestingly, there are many users of such systems, and their numbers are consistently increasing.

Best of luck.

What I can suggest to you is that you have thought about a great thing, but I would like to suggest that you first try to find a job and gather some domain-specific industrial knowledge. It will help you gain exposure to what is actually required in the industry.

Besides that, there is one significant fact: you are going to invest in SAP, and afterward, you will surely look for a return. However, from my experience as a fresher, you will likely encounter obstacles in achieving that.

The rest is up to you. All the best.

I have one year of experience in consultancy. Currently, I am working for a small organization for the last 6 months, implementing HR practices in a generalist profile under the guidance of the marketing head. There is no HR department here, and I am the sole HR personnel. I am based in Indore, Madhya Pradesh.

Contemplating Pursuing SAP

I am contemplating pursuing SAP at this point. Could you advise me on the following:
- Where should I undertake this course?
- What are the course details?

I would appreciate your guidance on this matter.

Thanks & Regards,

The Importance of Experience Before SAP

Radhika,

If a person has completed their MBA properly, I believe there is no need for prior experience. To learn SAP, it is essential that you are familiar with every format and formula. Understanding every format and formula will facilitate an easier grasp of SAP. What you have studied in your MBA is what you will encounter in SAP. Therefore, I believe one should proceed with SAP.

I beg to differ with Mr. Pankaj and others with a similar opinion. SAP is a specific technological tool that automates HR processes and helps in better HR management. Any SAP course will help you understand SAP and how to make the best use of it. However, to understand SAP better, it is advisable to have specific hands-on experience working in the HR department. Without prior practical experience, it would be challenging to grasp the highly technical content of an SAP course.

It is also essential to have all-round exposure to HR processes in a big or medium-sized company before delving into SAP. This is because only such companies generally have most HR processes running and the potential to purchase and implement SAP.

I do not believe any prudent company would hire a fresher to work on SAP solely because the candidate has completed an SAP course.

In my opinion, after completing an MBA, the first priority should be to gain quality industry experience, then decide on your area of specialization, and subsequently acquire knowledge and experience in that particular niche area.

Otherwise, there are numerous institutes and academies adept at selling their courses. You will need to discern whether the courses offered are worth learning and how they can benefit you.

Regarding the Quoted Text by pankaj5777

There are several grammatical errors. The corrected version is:

"If a person has completed their MBA correctly, I believe they do not need additional experience. To learn SAP effectively, it is essential to have a thorough understanding of every format and formula. If you are well-versed in all the formats and formulas, learning SAP becomes much easier. The knowledge gained in MBA can be applied to SAP. Therefore, I think one should pursue SAP.

Hello! My precious guides, I thank you all wholeheartedly for reciprocating. After hearing from all of you, I am thinking of continuing with my job as an HR Executive for a period of six (6) months, and then I will go for SAP. I am actually working in a consultancy for U.S. timings. I feel that I can still do something more besides the job that I am doing, but I do not know what to do. All I know is I have the potential to do something more than this. I want to do something constructive, be it any additional course or part-time job or something like that for my good. So please suggest to me how to go about this issue.

Yours Sincerely,

Hello dear Jose,

First, consider why SAP needs to be implemented. Begin by understanding the current HR systems before transitioning to SAP HR. This approach will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of existing systems that can be integrated with SAP HR.
