Sippu,
Did you have any interaction with the HR role in your job? If so what exactly? If possible I would suggest cross training or some form of shadowing prior to making a committment. HR may be what you think is what you want but I can assure you that once you are in HR you have to commit to it completely.
In my 35 years as an HR specialist I have seen a lot of people with extensive qualifications in HR but with no soul. I have also seen people with an innate talent for HR. If you are one of the latter HR is the place for you.

Dear Amrita,
Am happy that my post assisted you in understanding some aspects of becoming a trainer.
Am fully aware that you would find it difficult to find a job these big names..and therefore I would recommend the following;
Do make a module/session on a particular subject which you are really passionate about and take a session with a B- School in Delhi which am sure that they would be happy(rather delighted) to have you as a guest lecturer esp you work with one of the top placement firms in India ( as Mario would believe and say so !:)). This would test your skills and assist you in your realistic SWOT analysis. Honestly, my first workshop which came after sending 53rd proposals to B-schools wasn’t a success but I learned a lot about myself and ensured that subsequent sessions had relevant changes and crisper content which even continues today.
Fully agree with PVQ “In my 35 years as an HR specialist I have seen a lot of people with extensive qualifications in HR but with no soul. I have also seen people with an innate talent for HR. If you are one of the latter HR is the place for you” . It’s very true and apt.. like they say you gotta have a passion for what you do and the rest everything falls in place!. Many people think just by rattling off a ready made PPT.. they are trainers!...sorry I don’t agree as one must have compassion and desire to share knowledge. Just reflect for a minute about the training programs you have attended and ask why you like some of them. There are many trainers but a very few really good ones!.
Amrita, am a trainer by passion on creative thinking( haven't done ISTD..:-P) and in my spare time do conduct the workshops whenever I get the time on my personal time on weekends. Haven’t lined up yet anything so far in Delhi..may be would take a session during my visit to Delhi if am lucky that a get together is planned by Delhi CiteHR team during that time.
Best wishes,

Hi Nairsahab!!
Thanks for your cue on NIS Sparta. In fact they are located close to my office and I plan to pay them a visit after fixing an appointment. I have gone thru their site too. It is quite interesting. As I have been given a deluge of information, I need to prioritise it all before acting on it. That will give me the action plan and the direction.

Dear PVQ
I must say I was quite confused after I read your reply. Being in a SSI manufacturing unit, there was not much of an exposure to hard core HR as such. It was more on the lines of IR, productivity enhancing exercises. However, for the past 10 years, I have been actively doing career counselling and motivational workshops for school (10+2) students and college students and I enjoy interacting with a wide variety of minds and thoughts. The thought that I can make a difference to their lives in the smallest manner charges me up and makes me reach out to them again and again. It can be quite trying at times though. But nevertheless......
Would you be a little more explicit on the cross functional tarining or shadowing that you have suggested? I would like to explore more.
Cheers!!

Dear Rajat,
Your suggestion on doing small modules with B schools in Delhi is exciting. In fact as soon as my 4th sem exams get over next month, I plan to plunge into it with a lot of vigour. Will keep you posted.
I am looking forward to meeting you at Delhi in the near future.
I wonder what Mario has to say to your reply ;)

Hi Gautam,
I just came across some posts where you were answering career questions and felt the need to contact you in reference to the same for my wife.
I recently got married and my wife now wants to work.
She is a BCom, MCom and a PGDIT (one year).
She has worked with me for 2 months as a Collection Agency Employee while I used to work with as a Regional manager at GE Money Chandigarh about 3 months back, which is also not on papers. Hence, She is a fresher.
We are all now in Delhi staying close to Noida.
She doesnt have any other experience in her kitty as of now.
She is inclined towards learning and is ready to take challenges in the beginning of her career either in the field of Accountancy or in IT/ITES.
I would like to take this opportunity to ask you a few questions....
Which field should she enter ?
Is there a course that would help her get an excellent salary package ?
The goal is to have a faster growth and an excellent salary package.
You can reply to me here or directly at my email address
If you may call my wife Kulwinder Bedi directly at her phone number 9910408610, it will be so kind and nice of you.
Thanks and Regards,
Harkirat Singh Bedi

Don't You Think All Listed Courses Are More Of Money Making Rather Than Transfer Of Knowledge. Merely Certification Courses Do Not Gurantee Jobs Or Career Prospects. This Will Be Totally Misleading To Man In His Early 40's If He Has Worked In Ssi Without Any Specialization.
This Is Blind Suggestion And No Gurantee It Will Work.
If He Has To Spend 40 Lacs For Iim Then It Will Be More Beneficial To Join Abroad For Mba. That Degree Will Carry Global Weightage And Market.
