I am currently working as an Assistant HR Manager. I recently saw some job postings that require candidates to have an LLB degree. I am curious about how an LLB degree would be related to HR. Could you please provide me with some suggestions on this matter? Do you think pursuing an LLB through distance learning would benefit my career?

Knowledge of labor law affairs will surely add credentials to HR managers. Though it's a specialized field dealing with IR matters, many job descriptions and responsibilities require in-depth knowledge, up-to-date information on recent regulations, settled court cases, and recent developments in enacting amendments. Therefore, a law graduate may be preferred among candidates competing for HR positions. Law degrees obtained through distance education are not recognized by many recruiters nowadays. Even bar associations do not acknowledge such degrees. A few years ago, some colleges offered evening classes for law degrees, which are now derecognized. However, there are diploma courses available through universities for specialized subjects like International Law, Labor and Administrative Law, Intellectual Property Rights, Income Tax Laws, Taxation, Arbitration Law, etc., which can enhance knowledge acquisition. Perhaps such degrees may be accepted by some employers for existing employees, but not necessarily to secure new employment due to the reasons discussed above.
