Try look at a website called- strongmessage.com it's run by a People Management Consultant based at the University of Stellenbosch..i think you will benefit. Also try join HR Organisations like Institute of People Management..depending on where you are.

Welcome to the field..that's Proper Management. I trust you will enjoy the field.

oh dear..no clue wt ur big words meant?
mr mosesduma..cld u explain wt u mean?
i want to know the better option between econometrics n intl finance.

hello, i definately agree to leo
i aceept that before chosing a subject one should know what his or her specialities are

a person can know his or her ABILITIES AND ORIENTATIONS too.
this is done by a simple computerised software which i use,
well my intro===
My name is R Rajawat
I am a students career counsellor
i give computerised test to student , which help them give an idea
about their psychological status.

need help pls feel free to mail at

Dunno how good psychological tests of this kind are for judging the subjects or lines of interest, but surely they do help in determining what your likes and dislikes are....of course these can be determined by an introspection itself!
But when you're in student life and everything looks very confused, these tests could help you in clearing the fog....
Give it a try....you've got nothing to lose!
All the best!

hey sunayna,
if i read ur msg correctly,

u wanted to choose b/w ergonomics and intnl. finance..... and if ur doin bms from mumbai university then uve confused the option that bms offers...

i graduated in bms last yar ... elective one for the 6th semester is econometrics and NOT ergonomics...

so u need to choose between eonometrics and international finance (IF)

from my experience ive seen in all colleges students who score very high percentages have opted for econometrics.... for example in my batch, in my coll highest in econometrics was around 97 and the highest in IF was 81(which apparently was the lowest in econometrics..)

if ur planning to take up your post graduation, i suggest u opt for econometrics since it would be good help.. that does not mean IF would be a waste...

moreover u need to decide which subject you are interested in .... chechk the contents .... econometrics is more about statistics+economic models etc, whereas IF covers stuff like international currency rate arbitrage(2 pnt and 3 pnt), balance of payments, futures and options, world economies, currency fluctuations- causes and effects, all kinds of bonds, etc, etc....

most of the ppl ive seen, regret taking up whatever subject theyve opted for and keep cribbing..... so think about it and then take a decision

all the best

i wanna putmy question in a bit different way.how is the combination of marketing as major with HR as minor?plz help me
thanx n regards

Hi

HR as major is really good option. Following are subjects which are catching attention. To name a few: High Performance Work Systems, HRIS, HR Planning, Employee Relation (must).

All the above are few coming up areas in the fiels of HR.

As how to be a good HR Manager you should go through magazines like Human Capital, HRD Newsletter. These magazines will keep you updated on all HR related issues.
