Hi usha
Before i reply would like to know what is your qualification.
Basically IT recruitment job required , person can be from any background education
Only required is Good communication , can understand technologies and some other factor
But for HR , person should have knowledge of Recruitment , Performance appraisal , statutory compliance ( ACTs), Industrial relation.( this is for Core HR).
Lot of companies ( MNCs) are recruiting HR Specialists, means specialization in particular area like Recruitment , Performance appraisal , statutory compliance ( ACTs), Industrial relation .

MBA-HR is a must...if ur interested in shifting to Generalist, then you need to have an MBA degree, preferably regular mode

not necessarily do an MBA....
I think good knowlegde is imp...it need not be bookish info... if u do PGDHRM also its fine...
rest is on u... how u go ahead in ur career

Hai...
I strongly feel that an MBA is a key for the door of HR. But if u feel that you don't have time or you don't have that patience to go through the MBA program for next 2 years and if u feel how would the market be after 2 years, then it's high time you sit and work seriously on the HR aspects. The first step is to see what are the activities that a core HR is doing in your compeny. you can very well get that info from your friends in the same company. Please make a list of items you need to know about. Start preparing on them. It would definitely take another 6 to 8 months for hard core preparation. you can definitely get into general hr by asking for a role change after 8 months of preparation on these aspects. Every HR in a good company would be given a chance.
If you have any queries on this please send me a mail to [Login to view]. I would send you the list of HR activities that you need to concentrate.

hi GeetaK
Knowledge is important than MBA, but one can get knowlege by experience or by pursuing some courses ( MBA is one among courses)
