Dear Sirs,

I am an M.C.M. holder since 2009 and started my career as a principal cum lecturer on a consolidated salary from 2010. I have been admitted to an MBA program last year with a specialization in HR and am currently in the second year.

I am wondering if my experience could be valuable in this field. What are the strengths and weaknesses of pursuing a career in HR? Which companies typically select candidates like me?

I am eagerly awaiting your guidance and support.

Regards,

Vijay

Mr. Vijay,

Did you opt for HR because you liked it or because you thought it is a soft option for studying or easy to handle as a job or under the influence of the views of friends/peers about HR? A lot of your career progress depends upon your aptitude for HR.

So far as HR as a career is concerned, every company or organization from retail to I.T, from media to manufacturing, from banking to insurance, from Pharma to Dairy, from telecommunications to consulting, every business that runs in an organized way needs a HR. The opportunities thus are infinite but so are the candidates from the B-Schools which are mushrooming every day. Therefore the competition is tough but of course, the talent is in demand.

So far your background of teaching is concerned, you can leverage your skills in the areas of recruitment, training and development, coaching, counseling and employee engagement, content writing, or consulting. However, it is not clear to me as to what M.C.M means.
