Hello,

I am working as an HR/Administrator in a small IT company. I graduated with a BA from Delhi University and have 2.5 years of experience in HR and admin work. Currently, I am responsible for HR/Admin and Marketing (although I don't have much knowledge in Marketing) tasks. However, my salary package is low because it's a small company.

I don't have a degree in the same field. When would be the right time to change my job? Is it mandatory to pursue a degree course?

Regards,

Hi Shikha,

It is better to do a PG course in HR or an MBA in HR. As of now, don't look for a change. First, you should learn, gain knowledge, and prepare yourself to be competent with experienced persons.

Please consider pursuing an MBA degree in HR from a recognized institute. Presently, there are several reputable institutes offering such degrees in our country. Since you are now fully matured, except for Math, if any, you can easily pick up other subjects within a short time. Additionally, you can seek guidance from experienced teachers. Initially, everyone faces challenges in grasping the job, but with time, they become experts in the subjects. Furthermore, we are here to support you. So, don't worry and work with full confidence.

Hi Shikha,

Don't worry, you can do your MBA course. I have also done my MBA with HR. Besides, I'm a student of the Arts stream. Even though I have done it...

So, best of luck for your MBA.

Warm regards,

Dear Rekha,

As advised by other members of the Citehr, you should go for a professional course in HR. You may do it through correspondence studies, as there are many institutes offering this facility for the working class.

By pursuing your course, you can get better in touch with your studies and gain good experience. Believe you can do it.

Best of luck...
