Hi,
Although the HR practices are almost same in all industry whether its service industry or manufacturing. but all companies prefers to hire the candidate from the same background, like stated earlier at senior position they don't want to spend the training cost.
Yet at the same time few companies give preference to work exp. and performance rather then previous companies back ground. Hence i feel that past experience cant be ignored even if industry has changed.

Hi Saloni!
Consider any vertical within HR: - Recruitment, Learning & Development, Competency etc. for each of these some understanding of the industry and its processes is required.
An example could be...I am with the HR Dept of an IT Consulting Firm...I would need to know the current technologies, what are the firms competing with my organization. Also I would need to know typically how are BU categorized in the Industry.
I would hence strongly believe that prior experience in that industry would definitely prove to make the move smoother for you as well as the Organization.
Having said that I would also want you to note that there are individuals who consciously want to move industries....that would be out of choice and hence the consequences of a probable slow transition may have to be accepted.
You may write to me in case of any further queries.

HI,
Even i think the same as Mr Malik, being a Person from the same industry you may find the jobs easy to understand and learning curve may get shorten but to work with a different industry will give you an advantage of learing the implementation of "the same procedures differently ".
Chances of you being considered as a fresher are very less as you really have acumen on
Hr Practises and their implementations.
thanks

Hi,
Most important part of the HR career is the transferable skills.Which can be obtained from any industry.The industry specific knowlegde can be obtained in no time.Its very difficult to reach the senior levels in HR without exposure to different industries since a successful HR has to understand the external envirionment also not only the internal envirionment.
