Navigating Opportunities in HR for Freshers and Experienced Professionals

Being a final year MBA student, I specialized in HR to build my career. However, lately, the reviews about the opportunities in the field of HR are not quite positive. I have been advised that there are limited opportunities and that freshers may not find suitable jobs in this field. Is this true? Please advise! Thank you.

There are a number of opportunities in HR for freshers as well as experienced candidates, but the companies are not in a position to recruit and train the candidates in the concerned areas. So, they are seeking candidates who are already trained in the core HR areas, particularly documentations, labor relations, statutory compliances, along with statutory and non-statutory approaches.

Thank you!

I find the above statement paradoxical. Nevertheless, it is true that there are few opportunities for Freshers in HR at the moment. But with India's economy expected to pick up soon, one can anticipate an overall surge in job openings and subsequently, job openings in HR.

If one is keen on HR only, then the option of working with a reputed manpower consultancy is always open. However, one can search for a job in operations in various companies.
