Hello all seniors,
This is Sunil Katal, looking for your practical experience and advice. I have spent 2 years at a small IT company where there is no systematic process of working; everything is done according to the Director's will. I have now resigned from this company and am seeking a job in a reputed company. However, I still have fears because I lack exact knowledge about the systematic working processes of companies.
This leads me to the following questions:
1) What are the job responsibilities of an HR manager?
2) What skills should an HR manager possess?
Could you please suggest what steps I should take?
Thanks,
Sunil K.

Hi Sunil,
Welcome to the world of realities. Your experience is not something uncommon.
Many small firms are run by the whims and fancies of the man at the helm of affairs. In general Corporates are professionally managed and have policies, systems and procedures. Still it may not be an ideal environment in all the Corporates. You can find very professionally managed small companies also, but generally less. Law of nature prevails – Good and bad coexist – they are not size dependent. By and large Corporates are expected to provide better working environment. Exceptions do remain.
