Hi everyone,
Good day! I was searching for HR communities for the past few days, and luckily, today I found it. A big thanks to the person who introduced this site.
Basically, I'm a B.E. graduate, but my passion is HR. Initially, as a fresher, I didn't find many opportunities for HR in IT companies. However, I landed a Business Analyst role in a software company, so I continued with that. I also had the thought of pursuing an MBA in HR simultaneously. Later on, I realized that if I start searching for an HR role after completing my MBA, I would still be considered a fresher, albeit with good experience as a business analyst, making it challenging for me to reach my desired role. Based on this understanding, I began searching for an HR role and eventually secured a position as a US IT Recruiter in a reputable consultancy. Now, with 5 months of experience as a business analyst, I am transitioning to a new company as an IT Recruiter. My concern is whether a person with IT recruitment experience can enter a software company in an HR role. Could you please clarify this for me?
