Some questions first:
1. Why you don't want to continue in Textile Designing ?
2. When your course gets completed ?
3. Do you have any family responsibility like young children or aged parents/in-laws ?
It is possible to get employment in HR Recruitment firms, (there are many in Pune), as they even take Freshers, and the span of job content is quite narrow.
Alternatively, you can work in a BPO for some time, till your course gets over.

Hi Raj,
I cannot continue in textiles as there is just no garment company at all in pune, so getting a job in pune in textiles is just not narrow but impossible.
My course gets completed in yr 2011.
Nope as such i dont hav much responsibility as its just me n my husband at the time.
What is ur advice in such case?

Thanks for answering my queries.
My initial suggestions (which were well thought out) stands.
Getting into HR field from a different background is not at all un-common.
My concern was - getting a job immediately upon arrival in Pune (without an HR degree/diploma).
Since you do not have much family responsibility, you can pursue jobs in BPO - mostly evening-to-late nights job (UK,US,Austalia timings); they provide pick-up & drop, good meals (not much cooking @home involved) and good cheerful working atmosphere and decent salary. Maybe, by 2011 you can manage to join the HR stream of the very same company upon getting an HR degree.
Other option of joining a Recruitment Consultant can also be looked into. The job basically involves : collection and selection of CV's, networking with candidates and companies; scheduling interviews, keeping a track on final selections and receivables from companies.
Another option could be, to join an organization as HR trainee/Executive - requires a bit of personal networking and good references.
Explore these options to see which is preferable and feasible.
Let me know, in case you need further clarification/assistance; or you have some ideas of your own.
Warm regards.

Hello Neha,
Just went thru the conversation between u and Mr. Raj....
As he said it is not that easy to get into HR Field without a basic Educational Qualification in HR... Again what would you like to work in HR (specifications)... I think you shall be able to get into Recruitment, as a starter and my advice is that to stay in that field until you know the complete flow of recruitment.
Even recruitment is a good one if you could get into some good company with good experience...
HR Generalist for you won't be possible because of your nil experience in the same...
Chal All the best then... :)

Play an optimistic role in interviews... "All the best" :)

Dear Neha,
Ofcourse you can join as HR and with the course you are doing will add feathers to your knoweldge.
You have been a designer, so I think you can be a perfect match for companies especially animation, Studios, Telecom like Mobile, gaming company etc, where you can use your skills to recruit candidates with designer background.
HR mean Human Resources and relations, which all human beings are gifted with god and one does not have to do course to learn this skills.
If you understand the human factor and have key to details on human behavior I am sure you will shine vis-เ-vis any HR pro.
All the best and I am sure you dont have to join as trainer in HR because you never have been in HR. You had an experience in some working field and thats more than enough for you to apply for an executive position.
Suggestion, since you are in UK, try and do course on
PHR Professional in Human Resources
SPHR Sr. Professional in Human Resources
GPHR Global Professional in Human Resources
CCP Certified Compensation Professional
GRP Global Remuneration Professional
CPP Certified Payroll Professional
CBP Certified Benefits Professional
CEBS Certified Employee Benefits Specialist
CPLP Certified Professional in Learning and Performance
CPT Certified Performance Technologist
All the best,
