Hi,
Please give me advice on whether to accept an offer as an Executive HR position for a corporate hospital. I am an HR professional with around 3 years of experience. Please advise me on whether it is a good choice for me to transition to the hospitality industry. Currently, I am working for a construction company that does not provide enough challenge or opportunities for career growth and learning.
I am eagerly awaiting your reply.
Goodbye,

Dear Sindhu,
First, ask for your profile and your career growth in that organization because I had an excellent professor who was a VP at Bhaktivedant Hospital. Trust me, his knowledge was really good. So you shouldn't worry about the industry as long as the exposure is good. At the end of the day, everyone will see what you have learned in all these years.
Regards,
Asha

Hi Sindhu,
Since I am in the Corporate Hospital sector for the last 5 years, I can assure you that the career scope is very good. The exposure is also very good. In the industry, over the last few years, most of the leading hospitals have shown very good performance.
If you select the right organization, there is a very good scope for better HR practices like good Training and Development, Performance Appraisal, etc. Nowadays, most of the leading groups are also offering better pay.
But one thing is very important – you should select the right organization/group; otherwise, we will be stuck. :)
Wishing you a very successful career,

Hi Sidhu,
With due respect to the respondents who have been positive about the corporate hospital profile, I would like to brief you that I recently received an offer for a manager position from the Wockhart Group of Hospitals, but I didn't proceed. I consulted with my very senior GM, who disagreed.
The reasons are that in an industry role, you will have exposure to the entire HR function, whereas in hospitals, it will mainly involve recruitment, performance management, training, and development. If you decide to make a change in the future, you may be limited to hospitals or service industries. Additionally, Chief Administrators in hospitals are often doctors who can be difficult to deal with, as my GM shared stories of friends who left shortly after joining hospitals.
However, beyond everything else, you must have a genuine interest in this role and find joy in your work; otherwise, it may become monotonous in the future.
If you aspire to grow in hardcore HR, you should carefully consider your options, prioritizing the company's reputation over the pay package. Leading companies typically prefer candidates from established organizations rather than hospitals. The HR market is thriving, offering multiple opportunities for all of us in the days ahead.
As rightly advised by others, explore management or other sectors first before making a decision.

Dear Sidhu,
I have been working in the hospital field for the past 2 years. If you are looking for responsibilities, hospitals are the best places to work. Since they are smaller in size compared to other industries, you get vast exposure. I think you should go ahead with the offer.
