Hi ,
I have 4+ yrs of experience in recruitment & staffing in IT /Telecom /FMCG industries & frankly im tired of working in this HR function .I would love to explore the other facets fo HR but do not have the go ahead to shift within my exisiting company due to lack of experience . I fear i will be stuck in this area & wonder if i can achieve anything since the only step that seems gettable is that of a staffing manager — > staffing director …..& then what ??? Im basically an engineering graduate & then i did a 6 month diploma in a small time institute in HR .Do i need an MBA ? How do i shift into another area in HR ? Which ones are the most rewarding areas ? I abhor the general admin jobs because i feel its not rewarding & thankless by the eod… Training seems interesting & so does HR analytics… Kindly advise ………Im so desperate !!!

I don’t know what city you’re in but the best way to shift focus and raise your pay at the same time is to apply for a higher position at another company. Always apply for something you think you can’t get. You know the big paying jobs with giant titles. You will be really surprised when they call you for an interview and you actually get the job.
In HR, there are many core functions you can explore aside from recruitment and staffing such as:
1. Compensation & Benefits – handling job offers, retention packages, new remuneration packages, bonus simulation, budget simulation, benefits upgrade, etc.
2. Employee Relations & Industrial Relations – responsible in organizing corporate related activities, employee & Management issues (counselling)
3. Training – inclusive of actual “training” employees and research on training modules that can be applicable to different levels of employees
4. Administrative services – act as helpdesk and customer service
Getting an MBA is a big plus if you want career growth. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe Human Resources was intended to “be of service to others”. Which means, you need to love your job, a “sense of fulfillment” is only accomplished once you put your heart into it and doing HR work makes you happy.
Get a PHR Certification and get a degree in HR or at least a certification in the field at a local college.
