It’s time to learn Salesforce!
Recently Salesforce unveiled their third annual commissioned IDC study on the Salesforce Economy. It provided an interesting insight when it reported that Salesforce and its ecosystem of Customers and Partners will drive the creation of 3.3 million new jobs and more than $859 billion in new business revenues worldwide by 2022. In addition, by 2022 the Salesforce Partner ecosystem will gain $5.18 for every dollar Salesforce earns.
So, it is therefore naive to think that there will not be a HUGE demand for Salesforce and of course our hero – the Salesforce QA Consultant!
Hold on! You don’t have much experience or knowledge with Salesforce? Well lucky for you we have 4 ways listed below of how you can strategically place yourself and safeguard your Testing future roles.
