I have 2 years of experience in an MNC as an HR. I resigned from my job and took a break for 1 year due to personal reasons, and now I am finding it difficult to get a good job. I have been offered an HR Executive job in a small software company of fewer than 100 employees. However, it has no HRMS, no automation at all. Everything is still paperwork and manual processing. I am not sure if there are other firms like this and if it would be wise to work here. Please give me your honest opinion.

Dear Anon,

Just because an organization adopts primitive or mechanical processes, it would be too early to conclude that it is not a good place to work for. Maybe they have a reason. The virtues of an organization lie in its objectives and the vision that its CEO, Management, Director, or the Founder has for it. So, I suggest you do research about the organization before making up your mind. Also, try to put your word forward about adopting enhanced ways of HRMS before the management.

The size of the organization does not matter. The absence of HR policies also does not matter. The lack of sophistication too does not matter. The amount of compensation also does not matter, given the fact that you too are inclined to revive your career.

If the organization has a good culture and amiable environment, you can transform yourself into a change agent by seizing the opportunity to show initiative in formulating SOPs and introducing policies that help turn it into a workplace where every employee is eager to return the next day after leaving for home in the evening. It is only you who can make that decision.

Hello,

I would support what Saiconsult has expressed. It will be a good opportunity for you to prove yourself by streamlining HR practices in such an organization. Have a check on the company's financial stability and working atmosphere. Give it a thought that you want to revitalize your career and make a decision.

All the best!

Hi,

I think company size doesn't matter for HRMS because I already worked with a company of 1800 employees, but there was no HRMS. I used Excel for salary processing and other tasks.

Based on my experience and opinion, I would suggest you consider joining that company because a one-year gap can become challenging over time, making it harder to secure a job in HR.

Good luck for your future!

Saiconsult has given good advice. It may be an initiative by you to introduce HR automation. But you should settle down first and convince the management that you can provide value addition through such initiatives. How can the company benefit financially and also in terms of the quality of HR services? If you visit the 'EmpXtrack' website, there is ample material to support such initiatives.

Hi,

My honest opinion is that this is a great opportunity for you to test your own capabilities. This opportunity will provide you with one helluva learning experience that will add value to your career or profile. Please go ahead and be a change agent as suggested by Saiconsult.
