SAP and Oracle Experience

[PrettyBoyAJ]

I've done research on both but I know I would definitely understand it better if one of my fellow posters could tell me about these programs and the experiences they have on it.

Reason I ask is because I have an Accounting Degree and will be getting my masters next week. So in the job interviews I want to tell my future employers that I have experience in them. So the more information I have the better.

Thanks peeps!

trying to give you advice on oracle in a post is like trying to explain explain quantum physics on a post-it note lol.

i dont' know about SAP, but oracle is extremely complex.. to program with or to use. i've been programming with oracle since i was 18 and i barley know my way around it.

lol in the early 2000's i chose the wrong platform to learn lol

hmmm ..They both are like oceans..seriously...

hmmm to start with SAP is like front end [with all the input forms] and Oracle is back end [where it saves all the data].

to get a good job in SAP..you need to have SAP certification..There are two sides in SAP. Functional and technical.

functional is more about domain knowledge..like banking..healthcare..ect
technical is more about writing code.SAP has its own coding language called as ABAP.

I think its not object oriented..not sure though..

about oracle ..its where all the SAP data gets saved and retrieved..

I,m not sure if you know what is TSQL, if you dont know..learn abt it...its simple to learn..and its fun to work with..

this is very very very very basic information which I have given..

I have heard that SAP market is not that good as it used to be

if you really want to earn good money..learn BI..too much money for little work..its just click click next..all configuration..

So do you actually have experience with them? Saying it and surviving an interview with knowledgeable person are two different things.

Also, are you approaching it from a developer or user side?

I've only been a user of the manufacturing/supply chain side of SAP but i found that employers asking for it are really trying to say that you must be open to learning a program that's finicky and not user friendly.

I am interviewing for an accounting position. They don't require me to know it but it was on my résumé and I said I learned it in a class.

Sounds like something along the lines of computer science. This may be a little out there but have any of you seen the movie Polar Express. In college I picked up the program to design graphics to movies. It's a great program, but you have to be very good at Algebra or else you will get no where.
