Let me understand one thing... If they haven't assigned you any HR work, what work do you currently do in the company? Do they literally make you sit and do nothing at all? Please reply. Because based on your reply will be my advice.

Hi Swathi,
Plz don’t worry, since this is only 15 days you have joined the company. This is a normal / common issue in every organization. Since, you are very new to the company, try to understand what activities are going on in the HR department, and how are they handled by the respective authorities. Try to make yourself involved in the job by having a PROACTIVE approach. This will definitely help. Even though your colleagues or management don’t entrust any job to you, you need to be proactive, but make sure that, you are not annoying anyone. For example, if someone is doing any job, you can ask, “Can I help you with your job”, and believe me, nobody will answer “NO” even if they are not involving you in the job also. Try to find out if the HR Department has got any “HR Procedure or Policies” (generally a guideline book, that every company follows, which explains about the Recruitment and selection procedure, Work hours, Payroll process, Leave facilities, Disciplinary rules, Employee grievances redress, retirement and separation rules, Performance and appraisal policy, training and development, employee benefits and compensation, etc.)
And second thing is, plz check in your department, if there is a “Job description” followed for every employee. If your organization has a strong HR department, then I am sure, they must be having a Job description (roles and responsibilities of employees). If you find the job description, check, who are dealing with those jobs and talk to them. Slowly you will find yourself busy in work.
This is not a lecture, purely based on my personal experience. Believe it or not, I had taken six months to settle down in my job, and everything is normal now.
So, be positive and cheer up!!!

Hi Swati, I waited for 1.5 months before getting any work from my boss & after that I was always flooded with crucial HR responsibilities. So, don’t loose your patience.

Dear Swati,
Whenever you join any organization, whatever our seniors say, they never implement changes within a short time. They also need some time to assess the candidate while working with them and need to assess you with other colleagues in the department.
You should complete your job tasks on time and avoid panicking, as it may reflect negatively on your part. HR professionals should have patience in their work.
Thank you.

Hi Swati,
Fifteen days is hardly enough time to showcase and prove your skills. Why don't you speak to your boss about any tasks they may have, even if it involves doing entry-level jobs? No offense intended, but once your dedication is demonstrated, you will be entrusted with more responsibilities. However, I would recommend waiting at least 3-4 months before considering leaving the job.
Hope this advice helps.

I agree with what the other members have suggested. 15 days is too early to judge. Meanwhile, you can understand the company, the current HR practices, and future needs. Also, a one-on-one interaction with your boss would be better rather than keeping your apprehensions contained and being unhappy about it.

Hi Swati,
Just stay cool. I know it's kind of boring to sit all day and do nothing, but just think of it as your honeymoon period. Lastly, 15 days is too short a period to think about changing your job. Just stick on for some more time and talk to your boss.
