It is simple to find HR openings outside of West Bengal. As a fresher, you should enroll in various job portals. They will ask for your preferred location; you may add in your resume that you are willing to work in specific cities. You can also check newspapers where various industries advertise for CVs. The internet is the best tool if you use it to find exact information. Websites like Naukri.com, Monster, and JobStreet are great platforms where you can update your CV, highlighting all your best features, skills, knowledge, summer training, and internships in a proper manner so that CV screeners are impressed at first sight.
Search for opportunities in Ahmedabad and Surat in newspaper editions specifically published on Wednesday and Saturday. As a fresher, before applying for a job, you must update yourself according to employers' and industry requirements. Prepare your introduction, watch your body language, and practice your way of answering questions. Preparation will help you succeed in securing a job.

Thank you very much, sir. I have one more question. As I have already informed you, I have an MBA in HR and a BSc in Hotel Management. I am currently looking for an HR job in a 5-star hotel in Ahmedabad from Kolkata. If I directly email my CV to the hotel's HR department, would it be considered even though I am a fresher?
Also, sir, could you please review my CV and let me know if it is satisfactory?
Regards.

Applying for HR Jobs Outside Kolkata
Definitely, sending a CV directly to HR is a good effort. It's important to provide a strong reason why you are particularly interested in that hotel. Every big organization maintains a databank of CVs from candidates who came for interviews but were not selected or did not join any company for various reasons. Most companies keep such CVs for future hiring prospects.
You must clearly state that you are interested in working for this hotel in a specific profile. This will definitely leave a good impression on the employer. As you mentioned that you have completed hotel management, it's a really good sign and may attract the employer. I'm sure you will get a response.
You have to prepare a logical reason for transitioning to an MBA in HR after hotel management. As you belong to Kolkata, keep updating your skill set with the best dishes and recipes, as the employer may expect this from you during a telephonic or personal interview. Also, try to learn about Gujarat's favorite dishes. These are common questions, but if answered well by any candidate, it will leave a nice impression on the interviewer's mind.
