Hi Seniors, I am working in one start up software company recently only joined on April as HR I am the only person handling HR activities with minimum 0-25 employees, I am doing my verry best to the organisation I have one year exp in recuritment but I dont have practical exp in core HR activities so once I got this offer I am very glad because I am going to learn some newthings about the Core HR activities but now here actually case is different I am not feeling that I have independent to work here always some unhappy feeling.
Also whatever the part of work given by my MD I am doing at immediately but still he is expecting some value added progress I am ready to do those things but actually for doing that we have to co ordinate with some third party involvement that third party no giving proper response but my MD not able to scold that person because he is higher person but he know very well that I am doing very best to organisation even though he is continuously telling that you are not good I am going to change you, you are not giving progress. One day I asked what is lacking with me tell me sir I will change, I am doing my very best I have explained he also accepting that but still I am feeling like full of Negative thoughts , Unhappy, Hurting the job, even looking for new job also I decided so please tell me if the top management behave like this only or mistake with me..

Hi Anuradha,
Don't think about negative. The HR should motivate themselves... What ever the work you did, appreciate and motivate your self. If you've any manpower problem, give more importance to close all the gaps and concentrate for T&D, Employee engagement.

Hello Anuradha,
To be VERY objective, looks like BOTH sides made mistakes in the hiring process itself.
While your enthusiasm to gain Core HR knowledge & experience by joining this Company is very valid & understandable, where you seem to have misjudged is that you can gain experience thru trial & error in an environment that is LOOKING for immediate results [this could have been the right step IF there was already someone handling HR].
Where your Company made the mistake is to hire someone with ONLY Recruitment experience when their NEED was for a Core HR person.
In the process, you ended-up being in a square-peg-in-a-round-hole scenario.
Coming to how to handle the current situation, suggest have everything in-writing--your asking for the inputs from the Third-party & the subsequent follow-up mails. That would leave a trail of clear responses [or the lack of it] & the corresponding Day/Time tagging.
While I am not sure IF your MD will agree to give in-writing whatever he expects from you, IF you can manage it, that would do wonders to lay-out clearly what's expected of you & what you delivered.
If you can't do it, suggest put down in-writing ALL the points of discussions after your meetings & send/mail it back to him for Final Clearance. That will give you a clear roadmap on what's expected....enabling you to plan work clearly & ALSO some fall-back IF your MD tries to change his words later. Such a practice also can give your MD time to think IF what he asked you to do is actually what he wants to be done [sometimes it does happen that when things are seen in-writing, people MAY change their minds....earlier the changes the better for everyone].
However, IF nothing of this works-out, just get serious in looking out for a new job.
If this effort doesn't work, it can only mean one thing: that the MD is looking to experiment at YOUR expense [if you read the news, you find this attitude among many Startups, including well-known ones].
All the Best.

Yess, I endorse TS's view !!!
"However, IF nothing of this works-out, just get serious in looking out for a new job.

As they say, You canb bring a horse to water, but you can not make him drink."
Small or start-up companies treat their employees in this way only. There is no pother cure for this. It is better for you to immediately start looking for other opportunities.
Warm regards.
