HR Salary Insights: Where to Find Current Market Rates for 7 Years of Experience?

Dear All, where can one find the average salary as per current market standards for an HR professional with 7 years of experience?

Regards,
Ramya

The HR department is diversified; compensation, in relation to experience, depends on an individual's role in Human Resources, as well as qualifications, education standards, and the size of the organization. The more challenging the role, the higher the pay package one may receive. Could you please specify the specific area within HR where you have gained seven years of experience?

Warm regards,

I consider your experience at an Assistant Manager's level in the Human Resource division as ideal. Therefore, an appropriate salary for someone with 5 to 7 years of experience would be between 5 to 7 Lakhs per annum (on a CTC basis). However, this may vary depending on the MBA program and institute attended.

Factors Influencing Salary for HR Professionals

Salary is also related to qualifications and post-qualification experience. For example, if someone is an MBA in HR and has 7 years of experience after completing their MBA, the remuneration may differ compared to another HR person who is non-MBA but has the same experience. In fact, it may be different even for those who are MBAs but from different institutes (for instance, IIM and a private college offering PGDM in HR, which is equivalent to an MBA).

In addition to the above, there will be differences between large, medium, and small-sized companies within and across industry verticals. The scenario may further vary between public sector, private companies (whether listed or non-listed), and the government sector.

Ramya, your query, therefore, needs to be more specific and focused. If you are an HR person, asking such questions is a matter of concern.
