Hi every one,
I agree with you MN. The word is self explanatory and in the same time it is very vague. As soon as you categorize any thing with Generalist Profile it covers any thing and everything which that particular subject comprise off.
It also gives any individual an opportunity to explore every aspect of the subject and in a way master them all.
In other words you can call it as All Rounder.

Leadership Job Interview Question Answers
You are questioning to determine whether the candidate has leadership skills or potential. You seek to identify the leadership style of your candidate, from his or her perspective and from the perspective of his or her direct reporting staff and peers. You are determining whether the candidate’s style is congruent with the culture of your organization. It is helpful if you have created beforehand a leadership profile that identifies the skills and traits of successful leaders within your organization.
Leadership style is best demonstrated in stories. Self-examination and commentary is self-serving, at best, in an interview setting. Ask your candidates for many specific stories and examples.

Hi Santhosh,
HR generalist means one and sole handling entire hr functions or handling all hr activities.

There also they will be handling all hr activities like recruitment, Training, Compensation and benefits, Performance Appraisal and so on.

Hi Guys,
Thanks a lot for your contributions to the topic.
Let's deviate a bit.
Yesterday I was interacting with one of one of the topguns of a manufacturing company.
I showed my eagerness to swich on to IR when she told me that IR is completly different from HR in a manufacturing unit.
At times I think she was right in a sense but a general HR must include IR.
Isn't That?
