How Does Working On 3rd Party Payroll For A Large Company Affect Prospects Of A Future Job?

Hello friends,

I am new here.I hope to receive some help soon.I have few months experience.I have done my grad abroad.My cv is appreciated by most recruiters as I had a enriching role in my internship.

My issue is I have 2 offers ,one is a very good role in a very small company where I have heard there isn't much job security.This could accelerate my career as I do not have much experience.However I also have one more offer for 3rd party payroll in a big company for a years contract.I would be going for my further studies based on completion of my required work experience in 2 years.

From my knowledge working on 3rd party payroll is not appreciated in India.Also my role is very limited in the big company.I also think that getting a job after that could be a task.As ppl don't appreciate 3rd party plus being a big company I cant take many leaves as and when required for finding other jobs when my contract is about to get over.

I would like to understand if:

1) Taking the on roll with good profile in a small company is better than off roll with limited profile in a big company for a year is a better choice?

2) will it be easy to get a job in a good company after working on 3rd party in india?

3) Is it better to have a better role in a smaller company or just work for a bigger one?

4)Do indian recruiters/companies only have an issue with candidates working for a 3rd party for a small company or do they mind candidates on 3rd party for a big company equally?

I have very limited time to choose,hope to get a reply soon :)

My aim is to take a job that will help me get better jobs in d future.

Also I do not want a break or gap in my career. I already have one as I was pursuing a non academic course.

Oh yes most importantly I am into HR ,I have had a generalist profile in an internship and now I may be limited to recruitments in the MNC(3rd party payroll)

Hi,
first of all its important to check where you have most learning opportunity .
Secondly job security is also very important.
If you are getting opportunity to work with large MNC you will get much more chances to learn because MNC's are very process oriented and being as a fresher its important to understand the normal HR process from scratches it will be beneficial with future aspect.

I would say that working in a medium sized organisation under its direct rolls is better than working under a third party rolls in a large organisation. Putting a function like HR and personnel management itself is a very bad sign of an organisation because the HR function is very vital and involves keeping confidential records and data of the entire personnel. If such a role is outsourced, then what is the credibility of the organisation? Certainly, you should not accept it but start a career with an organisation which considers HR as part of the organisation and part of the management team.
