Dear Monika Ahirwar,
I wish you had mentioned the nature of your industry, your company's finished product, to whom you impart the sales training, what kind of HR training you impart, how many years of experience you have, and your experience in the current company, etc.
Transitioning from Training to HR
I recommend transitioning from training to HR in the current company. Generally, considering the background of the employee, interdepartmental transfers are conducted. These transfers are easy, and the trust of the top leadership plays an important role in the transfers.
Challenges in Joining a New Company
In contrast, suppose you apply for a job in the HR department of a new company. In that case, future employers will look for experience, and without professional experience, it will be difficult to make an entry into the HR department.
There is one more challenge in making an entry into an altogether new department. If the inter-departmental transfer happens in the same company and by chance, if it does not succeed, then there is room for going back to the original department. Working in a new company does not provide such a hedge.
Conducting a SWOT Analysis
The change of department is a major decision. Before making the decision, it is better to do a SWOT analysis of your career. Have you done that?
Reasons for Department Change
By the way, why do you wish to change your department? The training department offers growth as much as the HR department. What training programs do you conduct, and what is the scope of adding new training programs? Have you analyzed this?
For further guidance, you may contact me.
Thanks,
Dinesh Divekar
