I am an MBA with a specialization in Marketing (Major) and HR (Minor). Recently, I got a job offer from HR Consultancy (Ltd Consultancy) as an HR Recruiter. I am very much confused about whether I should join it or not. Please help me. If I join as an HR Recruiter, what will be my career growth? I don't want to start my own consultancy. As an HR Recruiter, what other opportunities will open up for me in the future? After a few years, will I be able to move to another organization? Can I transition to an HR Generalist role in the future given that my minor was HR in my MBA? Please give me suggestions. I need help.

Big companies have separate departments for Talent Acquisition. You can grow to the level of Staffing Head or Head Talent Acquisition. It is a well paid job.

Dear Biswajit,

My response is adding to Sanjeev's suggestion to you. However, it is going to take your mind in a different direction.

You're asking a lot of questions that really don't have anything to do with your decision today.

It seems as if you want all the answers to the jigsaw today before you even make your first move.

Well, my friend, this path will get you nothing short of an aneurysm - I promise you that.

Your priority today should be to get into a job - as long as it's remotely associated with your area of interest - so that at least you are in the workforce.

What's the difference between a player and a spectator? Choose which one you want to be.

You may take my comments as rude. But, believe me, this is the best advice you need right now. You don't need anyone to indulge your thinking and serenade with your mind about the endless possibilities of the future.

If you don't take the first step, you won't really have much of a future.

So, stop your dithering. If the organization that's offered you this job is a decent company (note I didn't say good or the best company), are paying you close to what you are asking for, has a nice work environment, you like the people you've met so far - then just take that job.

Once you have a job, are actually inside the workforce, you can do all the strategizing and make all the chess moves you want. At least then, they'll have some value and you'll be allowed to make your moves.

Right now, you're merely strategizing in thin air without any substance.

Does it really matter what career doors it will open for you in the future if you don't even start the career!

Instead concentrate and don't be blind to the door that is open for you TODAY!

Because if you keep missing too many of these doors today (seeking answers for your perfect tomorrow) you may not even have a door open Tomorrow!

I am sure you get the gist!

Start your life and then start your strategies. Until then, it's called - mind games!

Good luck and get to work!
