You may be able to get a consulting position with a tier one or two firm, but I seriously doubt that consulting position will be related to SAP in any way. SAP consulting firms are expected to provide very experienced SAP consultants to projects. There's no longer a chance to get placed on a project as a junior consultant - companies just won't pay for it. If they want a junior person on a project, they'll pull someone from the internal team or hire them as a "perm" employee. Honestly, I think you'd have an easier time breaking into SAP by trying to land a sales (or even better, a pre-sales) position with a third party software vendor that works closely with SAP. There are a lot of very successful SAP software partners, and many of them are looking for sales talent. A good pre-sales position will really help to acquaint you with SAP technology. Who knows, you might even be able to find such a position with SAP itself.
As you can see, I often advise people to take a "gradual" route to breaking into SAP. It takes longer, but the advantage of this approach is that instead of coming off as junior level "SAP wannabe," you can move into SAP-related jobs from a position of strength, leveraging your overall skills and background. I do like your end goal of getting into SAP CRM, and I hope you get there.
