Dear seniors,
I worked with an MNC (Total Manpower 3500) for more than 6 years in operations. In March 2007, I was transferred to HR as Sr. Executive. I worked as a Sr. Executive-HR for one year. In April 2008, I joined a small BPO (Total Manpower 50) as an Assistant Manager (Customer Service). Now I have two opportunities in my hand:
1) Sr. Executive HR (CTC 3.5 and current CTC is 3.0) for a small manufacturing company having one HR Executive and one HR Manager. Total Manpower is 100.
2) Assistant Manager (operations) in the same MNC I worked earlier (CTC 3.5 and current CTC is 3.0). [I left this MNC when my CTC was 2.5]
Please help me to make the right decision as I am still confused about better career growth. I may consider salary as well.
And, touch wood, I was appreciated in all three fields, what to do now?
Thanks a lot...

Firstly, try asking yourself: What are your areas of interest? What do you enjoy most? Because if you don't like what you enjoy, even if you are paid higher or have career growth, you would falter and would not like doing it. So, you won't find it worthwhile.
Secondly, what is your qualification and which of the areas you have mentioned does it match with?
Thirdly, what are your strengths that best suit the requirements? In my opinion, a career is a personal decision that you need to make, keeping in mind your strengths, ambitions, qualifications, likes, and dislikes. Growth would follow once you know the road you need to follow.
Please follow what you feel is good for you rather than taking suggestions because people would suggest what is good from their viewpoint, which may not be helpful to you as you need to look at things from your perspective. Answer yourself: what makes you feel good and happy, what kind of work you will enjoy, what motivates you, do you have the strengths to handle that, then make a decision and move ahead.
If you want my suggestion, surely, since I am an HR professional, I would say please take the HR route. But no, think for yourself and decide, as I am totally unaware of your credentials, qualifications, merits, likes, and dislikes. It is said if you do what you like and enjoy, then you are not working; you are actually having fun. So have fun and not work, which makes you tired. When I was young, my father used to tell me, "Please make your hobby your profession. You would love and enjoy what you do." I think I am getting too lengthy on this small issue. Good luck with whatever you choose. Do email it to me at gaggan_sahni@hotmail.com, but keep in mind the factors I mentioned.
