Hein Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Hi all,Anybody went from SA to Aus for SAP jobs? I checked the jobs available for SAP (various modules) and there are actually a couple. Do they make use of us SA oukies or will they stick to their wallabies?Thanks,Hein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansaPlease Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Hello Hein, My answer is not neccesarily SAP specific, but most of the time they will not really discriminate between a South African and an Aussie. If an employer has to sponsor South African (or anyone else) which may be time consuming and costly, the better, cheaper and easier option would be to employ a local, but at the end of the day it comes down to the demand and the supply of readily available applicants. If they can't find any decent applicants to fill a position, then they most likely would look abroad and bare the costs and paperwork involved in order to get the right person. Just my 2c...

DieSkim Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 Mr HansaThere are tons of SA Sappers over there. My best friend is the director of a SAP company over there and they have employed a number of SA people. Know of a few SA people working for SAP AU etc etc etc.SAP skills still in demand and if you have the righ experience - good chance of finding some opportunity.The SAP B1 and suites for small / med companies seems to be booming !CheersSKim (ex SAPper) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applicants with a permanent visa - whether or not from SA - are usually looked upon more favourably when applying for jobs.I've helped quite a few SAP folks get their visas, and SAP is on the MODL for a reason - there's a demand for you guys!RegardsPeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
