Navigating HR Careers: IT vs. Non-IT Fields – Which Path Should a Fresher Choose?

Dear All, I have completed my E-PGDM in HR after finishing Engineering. I need suggestions to choose the right option for career growth.

Differences Between HR in IT and Non-IT Fields

1) How is HR in IT different from HR in non-IT fields? Can someone shed light on this?

2) Is it a good option to join a non-IT company as a fresher?

Choosing Between IT and Non-IT Companies

3) Is it right to join an IT company with a not-so-good profile or a good profile in a small company?

Thank you.

1. The first thing to consider when aiming to secure a job in any company, whether small or large, is that the company itself does not matter as much as your knowledge. Your expertise will be assessed by future employers during interviews, so it is crucial to acquire knowledge of HR functions.

2. Theory work and practical work are distinct from each other.

3. Whether you work in IT or non-IT fields is not significant. The primary focus should be on securing a job, regardless of the industry.

I hope this helps clarify the key points for job seekers.
