Dear All,
Compliments of the Day!!
I have been working as a Cabin Crew Incharge with an Airline. I have completed my MBA in HR in Dec12.
I am looking forward for a job change in HR.
Mostly my CV is rejected because of my current job package wherein I am ready to negotiate and secondly because of no experience in the field of HR.
Pls let me now if there are any job opportunities available for me.
I have attached my CV along.

Dear Neha
You already have 7 years experience in Airlines and must be getting a good salary package.
As rightly observed by you, in HR in any industry, you shall be treated as a Fresher, since you do not have experience in core HR area.
In such a case, there shall bee a drastic cut in your compensation package.
Are you willing to sacrifice a sizable chunk of current emoluments for an un-guaranteed possible gain in future ??
What would be most advisable, seems to be to look for opportunities in your Airlines in HR. In case they have an upper age limit for in-flight crews, they may be already having an out-placement plan for such job progressions.
Second viable option would be seek out BPO/ITES companies where the work process relates to customer interaction; and they might prefer an HR with your background, who can deal with teams comprising of customer-focussed executives.
Warm regards.

Dear Neha,

Following up with Mr. Raj Kumar Hansdah in-puts which were clean and crisp, the in-put's I'm attempting to give you is a thing that you can consider which will be on few aspects -

1. On the approach to seeking a job - There is a difference between "fishing" and "hunting." In fishing you drop the net in the high seas where you know you will be able to catch fishes, so you get to meet your purpose - when the net is drawn up it comes with all type of fishes, big, small, brown, silvery etc., and each has it's unique quality. Where they go, what happens to them is dependent on several factors (which for the time being we will not broach on). This is what most IT recruiters do when they are in the market searching for high volume hires, and that's the way they fulfill their numbers. On the other hand, when hunting, it's slightly more focused, needs special skills etc., very challenging and trying too. Needs perseverance, tact, patience, and so many things to come right to get the "prize" the hunter is looking for.

So, I suggest you too apply the same principle here, there are so many companies doing so many things, but for you to succeed, look at the profiles of companies which can engage you with the skills that you have. As pointed out by Mr. Raj Kumar Hansdah, you may prospect BPO/ITES (which are mainly transaction oriented), your skills and your previous experience will be especially useful as any company to be successful in business would like to keep the "customer happy" so there is a role. what may be needed is good initial training to understand the company's business. The other are could be training on soft-skills, or a role called which you can play in connecting people of the company spread across geographies to facilitate the softer aspects of processes, usually called "employee connect" programs. If you are voracious reader and also good at writing, the other option would be to work in the area of "employee communication," which are all roles with potential in large very large organization's in which apart from qualifications, skills and experience, their emphasis is on attitude, articulation, etc.



2. You should cast an SOP (Statement of Purpose) - what can you do with the qualifications, experience and the skill you've acquired in terms of the contribution that you can make and add value to the company you want to join.

3. This is very radical, and is of course in vogue. There is something called a video profile wherein you make a small presentation to the prospects about who you are and what you want to do, what you can do. This will give the prospective employer a good idea on several aspects even before you are called for the face-to-face interview or the company's selection process.

Now I go back to your first posting..."Pls let me now if there are any job opportunities available for me. I have attached my CV along."

And I respond, “Is there anything I can do?” and I do it with this post...

Sometimes there’s nothing you I nor anyone can do…and we all know about it. But still we offer - our mind, our thoughts through words - written or by speech. And in your offering you will find everything you need.

Let's hope for the best and just keep trying. My best wishes to you anyway.

Mr. Doondi Reddy's response doesn't impress me on more than one count.
I shall make my points succinctly:
Do not make premier institutes look and sound so cheap
Admission process beginning from the entrance test to getting admitted and then to earn your degree is not easy at all
The price tags can range anywhere between Rs.25.00 lakhs to Rs. 45.00 lakhs (anything that has value and fetches value come with a price tag
The Rs.2.00 - 3.00 lakhs might be the price you pay for an institute that doesn't have a recognition from any university
THERE ARE NO SHORT CUTS IN LIFE.
I would also like to add: While advise is free on this community which is followed by several thousands ranging from students to employed to educationists, we might turn to become a laughing stock if we do not think that each of us have a responsibility.
Let's be careful in sharing information as there are several who might even be misled if we are loose in our responses.

Dear Members,

I ran into some technical issue that the effect of my last posting "I've been an active member of the community CITEHR since 2009." and am now happy that I am back on the track.

Being on the topic of Ms. Neha and her trial for changing her job. I'm sharing this to you wearing my HR 'CAP.'

Following up with my posting Ms. Neha who was flying out of Mumbai on Friday morning on duty to London called me a while ago after returning.

She communicates well, listen well, picks up things well, and was able to catch on to what I was saying and above all she makes a good impression of one with a great attitude.

Now whenever I've been trying to hire resources for the position's I wanted these are attributes I look for apart from the main skill-sets of the JD.

I write this out here, for two reasons (this is a voluntary appeal):

One as a community CITEHR, we are supposed to be networking strongly and also be of help to one another in which ever way we can.

Two when we come across people like Neha and if there is anything we can do, I believe we should. I gather that she is looking to be in Mumbai and will be prospecting job changes in Mumbai. She should be laying out a plan of chartering her approach to make this happen.

Let's see if we can use our contacts to see that she gets a call to meet them, and then on I guess she can manage her way through. At this point of time she doesn't even get a response, and that's the biggest issue she has.

Let's do our best. Best wishes to you Neha

After working for 6-7years i don't think so any Indian Syllabus would be difficult to understand.
I suggested Branded Business schools (which means not taking more money, by 18k you have India's best business school offering distance MBA in HR- for admission they take 4 rounds of experience and they need min 4+ years of experience in the same domain)
giving free suggestion means not to spoil the other person,
I dono how much you are good at Observing Corporate Profiles, today MNC's are looking only at those branded college because only there they are tought GREAT, rest all take money and send home your Cerfificate and will be placed in a Indian companies, where top management will die to listen to Young people are new joinees.
Yes there are Some indian companies who are accepting yound ppl advice, but how many are they. we can count such companies not more than 10 out of 100.
