Hi Sweety...
I guess we are sailing in the same boat..About 2 or 3 months before, I made up my mind to shift frm mf to SAP ABAP..I also talked to some of my friends & colleagues who r in SAP... but somehow I dropped the idea bcos I felt it was risky at this point...
I could see some bottlenecks in such scenarios...
Firstly, u will have to start frm ZERO with the new technology and gradually gain expertise in the same bcos u will be competing with those who actually hav the real time exp in that...this mite take a few mnths i guess..
Secondly, u have two choices. Either u go as a fresher or claim experience in the new tech(as if u hav been wrking on it frm X yrs
).
Getting thru an interview in the new tech may b difficult (but still if ur confident, u can crack it) but surviving in a company with the claimed exp is more diffciult...There will be high expectations from u when u say ur 3 or 4 yrs exp in tat tech...
I am not writing all this stuff to discourage you but only to suggest you that think twice before u make a decision...n also the IT market is not a hot cake as it used to be...u mite be aware of the recession too..
anywez wish u gud luck...
Cheers,
Manoj
