Hi all,
I would like to ask for your help ASAP. I'm an engineering manager and have my MBA in HR. I have an opportunity to join HR as a recruitment manager within my company.
- Does it a good move?
- Are engineers preferable to work in the HR field?
- What are the market opportunities for me if I join?
I still have 2 days to make my final decision, please advise.
Thanks

Recruitment is a very tough job to manage in any organization, especially in the new economy segment where there is a lot of attrition and new recruitments. The organization's interest in your delivering on their manpower requirement according to their organizational ethos and mandate has to be fast. Most organizations want top rankers with low job hopping and excellent credentials at a salary which may or may not be bright, especially when a big organization asks you to sell the company's brand value to the candidate shifting laterally in the hierarchy of the organization. You would have to unlearn whatever you have learned in your entire career and relearn yourself. It would be exciting.

Recruitment is a very tough job today. As an MBA (Finance, HR) final year student, I am now appearing for campus placements. Most companies are looking for toppers for their organizations, focusing primarily on educational qualifications. However, often these selected individuals are toppers just because they memorize lessons without understanding their real-life applications. They study solely to be on the top list.
I am curious to know why companies overlook students who may not be on the top list but possess the ability to speak confidently in front of many people and fearlessly take on challenges. These students may outperform the toppers, yet they are denied opportunities due to their lower scores, resulting in them being eliminated from interviews.
Can anyone provide insight on this issue?

Dear Mr. Yousuf,
I am an MBA final year student, and I completed my graduation in BBA. Regarding your three questions about job experience and switching careers, my opinion is that if you have many years of job experience and desire to explore something new by transitioning from your current job, you should go for it. An experienced individual can often assess situations and people better than someone with less experience. Once you are familiar with your company's environment, especially in the HR section, you should definitely consider making the switch.
Thank you.

Hi Hany Yousif,
Welcome aboard. I have worked in various engineering fields for more than 10 years and am presently in HR after completing my MBA. I personally believe that it is a wise decision/move, especially working in the Telco Service industry. This is because many HR personnel do not fully understand the challenges personnel actually face - such as needs, requirements, and problems. Therefore, individuals with engineering experience who transition to HR would be a valuable asset to organizations that are technically oriented in nature.

Dear Hany,
As you mentioned having 10 years of experience in Engineering, could you specify the particular field of engineering you worked in? Additionally, what was your motivation for pursuing an MBA specifically in HR after dedicating a significant period to the engineering field?

Hi,
Based on my experience, it is not a wise decision to change fields at this juncture. Because you would need to start everything from scratch, in addition to losing the experience in your current field that was gained with a lot of effort. This is my perspective.
