Any Siebel or CRM related experts/professionals out there? What is the scope of Siebel in future? And since salesforce/fusion etc are gaining market attention in coming times; how good are the chances for a person working on seibel platform to get jobs in CRM field after 2 years experience?
My only concern was that if working on a domain/tool which is specific to cater a limited applications - i.e. the Oracle Siebel in my case, will I ever able to justify during interviews in new companies that I can work on .net/java but since I would not have the experience of working on those technology specific projects. And will that have an affect in terms of the hike in new salary in those companies when compared to my other friends who are actually working on core development projects in startup companies!
I requested my manager to put me on core development part and he even assigned me a project which had to be developed for internal portal for our team using java but it was pulled off because of higher orders which asked my manager to use the resource for the intended purpose of the team.
Though in my current profile we have L3 maintenance and support which involves coding but it is mostly in js and siebel specific softwares - it has its own tools for development. For database I do have sql development in Oracle 10g.
Also my manager is willing to further assign me an db admin role in the team along with L3 maintenance.
PS- One of my team mates suggested me to do a correspondence MBA from Amity/Ignou/Symbiosis to fullfill my mba thurst But upon enquiring Symbiosis provides diploma whereas Amity/Ignou provides degree. But I am skeptical about the worth of a correspondance MBA degree in enhancing my career or affecting my future salary if I turn into Business Analyst after, say, 5 years of working in IT industry.
