Seeking Guidance and Support for Transitioning Back to D365 Functional Consultant Role

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 42

Dear Esteemed Community Members,

I come seeking guidance and support as I navigate a pivotal juncture in my career journey. Having dedicated myself to Ax 2012 and d365 from 2018 to 2020, I encountered a setback during the COVID-19 pandemic, facing a layoff that led me to explore opportunities in data management. While this detour provided valuable experience, my heart remains set on returning to my passion as a D365 Functional Consultant.

Over the past three months, I have diligently immersed myself in studying and honing my skills to re-enter the realm of D365 Functional Consulting. Despite my efforts, I have encountered challenges in securing a role, facing setbacks in four interview attempts. Thus, I turn to this esteemed community, humbly seeking your wisdom and guidance.

Could you kindly share insights, strategies, or tips drawn from your rich experiences that could help me navigate this transition successfully? Any additional assistance or guidance you can offer would be immensely appreciated as I strive to re-establish myself in the D365 Functional Consultant role.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I eagerly await your valuable advice and support.

Warm regards,

I have the same question (0)
