Hi,
I would like to request all the senior people to shed some light. I have good experience in HR (currently pursuing an MBA through DDE), but I do not have a degree. Despite this, I hold a good position in HR. On the other hand, my team member has a degree in HR but lacks experience. I have obtained various certifications in HR across different fields.
Please share your thoughts.
Thanks,

Hi Manish,
HR is a psychology-based subject and a mix of facts and techniques. Your proficiency in the subject proves that you are a good situation handler. Now that you are pursuing a degree in MBA as well, this, combined with your experience, will surely take you places.
Reach greater heights.

Sincere thanks in advance for your helpful gesture.

Hi Manish,
Thank you for your prompt reply. Has your present organization spent money separately to get you trained in these areas? Would you mind mentioning the different areas you obtained training in and the contact number and name of the person/organization? Hoping to hear from you.

Hi,
I have known from personal experience that some companies even refuse to consider your resume if you do not have a Masters in HR. I have found this to be a restraining factor as regards myself. In most cases, preference is given to those candidates who have an MBA in HR. Experience, the right attitude, and other skills seem to be rarely considered.
I think just having a degree doesn't necessarily make you the right choice for a job. Many other factors play an important role, like attitude, communication skills, sincerity, willingness to learn and contribute, etc. It's really an unfortunate situation. How will you get the necessary exposure and experience without companies considering you? In some cases, an employee without a Masters's degree can contribute just as well as an employee having one, and maybe even more than an employee with a Masters if he/she has the right attitude towards the job.
I have expressed my views as per my current observations in the job scenario. Maybe other people have other things to say!
