8 个月I have been out the business for about 15 years and a lot has changed since my days as a aerospace manufacturing specialist. I’ve applied for another position in the aerospace industry, but they require me to have this software under my belt for 3-years. To me supply chain is supply chain, logistics, manufacturing operations, and warehouse management doesn’t change much only how you see it in the overall picture, for stakeholders, customers, and internal audiences. If you don’t understand the concept of the environment in the industry how can you be expected to use the software itself. I have a degree in information technology, (data management, database programming, SQL, computer networking, and computer science). Why would a person with a HS diploma qualify more strongly than the other person who has a degree in the field? *Yes the requirement is three years of experience in SAP. Not venting but seeking your advice , knowledge wisdom on the situation. Thanks
