Bro, a direct shift to SAP MM consulting might be challenging due to the specific technical skills and domain knowledge required😅

SAP MM is overrated. You’ll be starting from scratch with no real experience. Stick to project management or engineering.

You’ve got a solid foundation. SAP MM is a strategic move, plenty of demand in industries like supply chain. If you’re willing to invest in learning, it could pay off big.

4 years of experience in SAP isn’t a hard rule. If you're proactive and network, you can land a role with less experience. SAP skills are worth the risk!

SAP MM is a safe bet long-term, but transitioning might take longer than you expect. You could face competition from candidates with more direct experience.

If you’re stuck in a job with no SAP exposure, go for it. The skills you gain in SAP will make you more marketable, even if it takes time to break into consulting.

End user experience doesn't count. You have to start from scratch if you're going to make a career out of it. Get an internship after doing courses and look for permanent opportunities. I was a mechanical engineer for 5 yrs and made a switch to digital marketing and the career is alright so far. Getting not so bad pay now which I would have got after working 15 years in mechanical.

You’re already familiar with SAP basics, which is a great start! Have you considered doing a technical SAP MM course to transition faster?
