The Australian 2017 SAP Talent Survey

We recently conducted a survey of the local SAP talent pool here in Australia.  We had nearly 200 people answer questions ranging from drivers when selecting an employer, to if being SAP certified adds value to their wider role.
The insights are fascinating for anyone in a senior leadership position within the world of SAP.

Objective:  To offer SAP Australia insight into the Australian SAP talent market from a recent survey that Precision Sourcing coordinated.
