Hi! From what I understand about the question, you are trying to understand the areas related to Human Resources which still face problems and are constantly in the discussion regards to the problems and possible solutions. Is that right?

Some of the hot issues related to HR are talent retention (the workforce is becoming exceedingly complex as three generations now work together. Retaining millennials is a challenge because of various factors, like rewards and recognition policies, organisation structre etc.), HR analytics (using data to maximize the efficacy of HR related decisions etc)

2. There are firms which hire HR consultants - ex. Hay Group. There are plenty of opportunities in this sector 3. Could you please elaborate on this question? 4. It is not as hectic as other colleges, but it is busy all the same. I am not qualified to answer any questions about the MHA program, sorry:) 5. I am not too sure about that. The School of Human Resource Management and Labour Relations has three courses (MA HRM&LR, MA Social Entreprenuership, MA Globalisation and Labour) and hence there are adequate faculty members. Many of our visiting faculty memebers are industry experts and professionals. 6. There is one international internship offered, and one student goes for it generally. 7. I personally disagree with that notion. HR is not about arranging birthday parties and being 'fun'. HR is a strategic partner to the business hence, like any other vertical there is plenty of opportunity to be yourself. However all corporate require excellent communication skills and ability to be a team player. 8. Many companies believe in what is called affirmative action. This means that if they have a position open and they have two equally qualified candidate they would prefer a candidate who brings diversity to the table. However, rest assured all companies look for competence first and foremost.

The exam consists of 100 questions. 35% are based on GK, and the rest on Verbal and Quantitative Ability and Logical Reasoning. There are plenty of resources available online. However, I would suggest the following: GK - Manorama, Competition Success Review, Pratiyogita Darpan etc. Quant and Verbal - Arun Sharma and R S Aggarwal

Hi Aayush. Unfortunately, I am not aware of the exact cut off. This is a guess, mind you, but it might be around 60-65. The program is distinctive, and has a lot of focus on hands on experience and a theoretical perspective.

2. I am not too aware about this. As far as I have heard, people do additional degrees, but rarely another MBA. 8. I disagree. Each company has their own numbers that they aim for and hence hiring is done accordingly. As far as my internships are concerned, I really couldn't say ( I hardly spent counting the number of men and women in each office :) ) 9. The small batch size which allows you to know all of your classmates, four fieldwork internships in four different sectors, diversity of people and experiences, and of course the fantastic placement figures for Human Resources
