I was working as an HR executive, but I left my job for 2-3 years. If I want to get back to work, then any organization can take me on as their employee. The question is about what I would tell recruiters and whether my skills are outdated in the fast-changing job market. What should I prepare for applying for my next job?

Dear Dipali,

Unless it is too personal, you can tell the real reason for which you were out of a job. There is no need to concoct the reasons.

Your worry of skills getting outdated is a little unfounded. The service functions of the HR department, which earlier were called personnel management, have remained the same. Some changes in labor laws have taken place. You can update yourself on these changes. The core part of HR has also remained the same. HR's role in this function lies in improving relations with employees or enhancing their engagement with the organization. It cannot become outdated in 2-3 years.

Therefore, go ahead and start applying for jobs. If you have an MBA or have completed a course in HR, then open your books and start reading. Refresh your knowledge!

All the best!
