First, I would like to say thanks to you for showing your interest and confidence to this community and whole heartedly welcoming you to CiteHR Family.
Second, whenever I found badly distracted people like you, feel never good. Seriously, this is the time to wake up and put yourself to the right track.
You have done B.Sc (Maths, Physics & Chemistry), MBA (Finance) in 2008, worked as a Tele caller for a year and now working as an HR & Admin Assistance, now, I’ll take the words of Ankita and really keen to know, have you ever tried or wished to work with Finance & Accounts?
In addition to this, can you please consider your qualification and experience again and let us know what your career objectives are? You may have tried and could not get fair chances initially and had to work with very first possible options but still I do not think, you were not able to get freshers/trainee jobs with your career field (MBA-Finance). Like Ankita said above about your analytical and numerical skills that you obtained by your MBA in Finance but never used them further and got distracted with whatever life uncertainties, but now working with HR & Admin which i as well as you know, is not a fair dealing with yourself even to your educations I would say.
We understand sometime life put us on a different track and due uncontrollable conditions, got distracted but one must not stop fighting with it, and the most important thing that matter here is to FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT THING WITH A SET MOTIVE. You still can make a new start bcz this is a question about your CAREER / a professional life.
In simple words, I would suggest you to make a fresh start. Make a new CV and start looking for Freshers or trainee jobs with respect to your educations qualifications side-by-side working. Also revised your knowledge, learn/study as much as possible but for sure you must not continue with HR & Admin which is not your line, no matter you have spent 1 year and have earned some knowledge. This one year of experience, not matter concerning your professional life and career that you have to go along.
You now have to put yourself on the right track that you have lost a long ago and, I request you to read all the responses you have from expert above, so that you can now understand on how and with what you have to move ahead.
Note: Make a new CV and send it to me, I have some good contacts there in Hyderabad; maybe I can help you in something. Go to my profile for contact/emails

Dear Spandana,
Wishes for you in the New Year. I find that you have been encouraged by every member on this site. I feel that all the members have correctly expressed their opinion that you should acquire some additional qualifications appropriate to suit the qualifying criteria for the job of an HR Manager. Experience will support your selection. Multinational corporations (MNCs) will consider your candidature provided you meet their qualifying criteria.
Since you are a science graduate and then changed your specialized degree to Finance, it is possible that some bank may choose you for their risk management portfolio. You may also consider trying for that.
With good wishes.

Dear Friends,
I have completed BBA (Regular) from IP University, New Delhi in 2007. After that, I pursued an MBA in HR from Punjab Technical University through correspondence in 2010. Currently, I have been working as an Accounts Executive in a Government Society for the past two years. However, I am not satisfied with my current salary and uncertain about my future prospects because even though I have qualifications in HR, I am working in the Accounts department. While I am content with my work in accounts, I am contemplating a change.
I kindly request my seniors and friends to advise me on my future plans. Should I consider transitioning to HR as my field of work?
Thank you.

Firstly, I fail to understand one main thing, even after thinking a lot: why many of us are pursuing our degrees in something and later we end up working in something else, which is not even remotely connected to each other. A finance graduate works as HR, and an HR graduate works in Accounts...
Perhaps we may still be a little amateur while selecting our graduation, but we definitely can't be so immature while pursuing post-graduation...
Anyway, to answer your query, Ms. Mamta -
The answer to your query lies in the answers to the following questions:
[*] You said you did MBA (HR) Correspondence from PTU. So, while doing it, were you on a job somewhere? In which department.
[*] Your current Accounts job was it before or after your MBA (HR)?
[*] If it was before HR, why did you not think of switching your department in the last 2 years?
[*] If it was after HR, why did you take up this Accounts job?
I can understand that sometimes one needs to take up what comes their way, but a career shift is a very sensitive issue. The first question (at least I would like to ask you) when you look back at HR and wish to return is - What were you doing for 2 years in Accounts if you were qualified in HR back in 2010? You need to prepare for this tough question.
I may sound rude, but honestly, I wanted to give honest feedback, an honest review of the upcoming scenario. Rather than painting a rosy picture, I believe it's better if you're prepared for tomorrow's issues that may just strangle you more.
Hope it helped. All the best

Thank you for your reply!
I had to take this job after completing my MBA due to financial crises and with no other options in the HR field. I can't change the past, so I am trying to shape my future at least. During our qualification time, we were not in a position to figure out the best way for life. Now, what should I do? Should I pursue any qualifications in finance?

Hello Mamta,
You have an MBA in HR, so you should consider returning to and continuing in HR as it is your core area. You have just started your career, and taking corrective steps at this point would be really beneficial for both you and your career.
Currently, you are on a different path, and situations like the one you and Spandana are in can make it challenging to transition back to your original field of work based on your education. This is not an easy task, but it is crucial to take timely corrective action because it impacts your CAREER/life significantly.
Life is uncertain, and distractions can arise for various reasons, which is understandable. However, as mentioned in response to Spandana, once you realize this, you must take corrective measures or appropriate actions promptly.
Both of you must remember that the new or original work field you are considering or being advised to pursue can guide you in the right direction for your career and life. To overcome your current and upcoming challenges, you need to be prepared.
Now, you should start seeking and applying for jobs that align with your education. While continuing your current work, begin your job search. Update your CV, apply for jobs, attend interviews, and importantly, focus on refining your skills and knowledge.
Since you have been out of touch with HR, you need to restart your studies, gain practical experience, and learn as much as possible. Engage in discussions and visit https://www.citehr.com/375740-indust...iscussion.html to access websites where you can learn about our Industrial Acts.

Hey friends,
I think Accounts motivates me more than HR. Now, what should I do? Please suggest any type of course or diploma that is well-recognized. I don't want to go back to HR as my current job is related to Accounts. Also, during my graduation stage, I gained a lot of knowledge in Accounts.
Thank you!
