You have already accumulated 3.5 years in IT field and if you switch over to HR, you need to start allover again as a fresher as you seem to have no previous experience in the field of HR.You need to have relevant qualifications in HR in accordance with prevailing trends in corporate hiring for HR and this is all the more necessary if you do not have any previous exposure to HR.This is not job change but change of career and is a paradigm shift in your career, aspirations,traits,aptitudes and attitudes, as the nature and responsibilities of an IT professional and HR professional are entirely different..You need to sit and think coolly whether you are ready for a such a change.We can only provide you with some thinking tools but it is you who has to take a final call. kindly do not send your resume as I intend to act only as a catalyst to help members to see the problem from different perspectives before they take a decision.

Hi,
Agreed with Mr. Saikumar. As you have IT-Background you will job in IT recruitment firms.They will give preference to you. With starting your fresh career in recruitment-HR you can switch to Core-HR after having some experience.

Dear Mr Saikumar,
I have an experience of around 11 years in software development. I want to switch to the profile of HR for multiple reasons, openings for which are available in my current organization itself. What steps and further qualifications would you suggest, to make my resume get shortlisted there.
Thanks & Regards,
