Just wanted to know your valuable feedback, as I had applied for XLRI PGCHRM course and got their email of selection. I'm a little confused as I don't have much experience in HR, but in my current organization, my AVP: HR has started giving me some HR-related work, like coordination with the candidates and consultants, onboarding, first round of interviews, etc. I am working as an executive assistant.

So I just wanted to know whether doing this course will add value to my CV and if there is any chance that I will get a good job in HR in the near future. As the fee is high, and I need to take a loan for the same. Please provide your feedback and suggestions; I need to reply to them within 4-5 days whether I'm interested in this course or not.

I am sure that one day you will become a matured HR Expert upon completing this certificate course.

While congratulating the poster for securing admission to a famous institution, I must also advise all posters that in correspondence, please use correct spelling and grammar, and avoid short forms that are not universally acceptable. These short forms and abbreviated writings are a result of our SMS culture and need to be avoided in such forums or official correspondence. The first impression of any correspondence is formed by seeing how the facts and views are presented in writing. Take care in writing, and half the battle is won.

Hello Priya,

Please share course details. Is the course full-time or third-party distance education? XLRI Jamshedpur has started offering distance education, and I am not sure about the eligibility for the course. Third-party providers only offer certificate assurance; please confirm with them regarding Placement Assistance. I would not advise you to join these courses if it is a distance education program. Avoid taking a loan for any distance education.

PS: Personal Opinion.

Hi Ashish,

It's a satellite program with two days of classes per week for one year. There is no placement assistance provided. The certificate will be awarded by XLRI only. The fee is around 2.50 lakh.

As I don't have any experience in HR, I am getting very confused about whether I should pursue this program now or wait for a year or two.

Hi Vishnu Priya,

Now you have more or less enough details to make a decision.

Since your superior has started allotting HR jobs, you have already made a beginning in gathering experience.You are the best judge to know how much of HR work you are doing now and how much you will continue to do in the days to come.So please do not worry about experience. Take it as something that is already there.

Once the certification is from XLRI there should not be any problem in recognition.

If yours is not the first batch, you can seek the advice of your seniors in this matter.

According to me the most important point from my side is to take the comments made by Shri Nathrao seriously.

Whether you decide to do the XLRI course or not there is an immediate need to check and correct your style of writing.

After finishing a draft fully, go through it to see that everything is written properly and correctly.

It does not take more than two or three minutes to read the contents stacked in a full page of A 4 size.

Communication skills are important and go a long way in one’s career and beyond.I hope when you make your next posting, you will take those extra minutes to make a good readable presentation.
