An hr of HR...

After a Long weekend, bored with all the movies…it was HR to the rescue. Really the HR chemistry for its people is just amazing, seems like they only understand us.

HR or TM… ‘Talent Management’ whatever you would say, the name itself sounded like Trade Union type, problems of employee not compensated enough with the present compensation…but the reality was quite different.

Last term, we often did a world tour, around the globe…core being at Singapore…this term also doesn’t seem to differ, just the base shifted to the Gulfs. The unique ness of IFMR is that, without having an official onsite industrial tour, we have done plenty…that too in the first six months.

Back to the HR session, it seemed like Satyam was the most trustworthy company, exception being the corporate governance cell, but Raju still a true mentor for the Youth of the Truth (Satyam as understood in Sanskrit). The next target was Infy, or atleast the guys from Infy, to share their ‘Encyclopedia’ of Experience…of the corporate culture they were in.

Oh…how can I forget the basic of HR, respect others time…be on time…otherwise u gonna hear a short word in a sweet way… ‘Thank you, next day!’ The height was an Infy guy, caught while arriving late in the class, was still in the process of Chrysalises...was so much in it, that his experience at Infy was put in doubt! Really… oh yeah!

Last but not the least, the faculty, both with vast knowledge in this field, yet looked like poles apart…One was more like MCQ answer…as short and precise could be, the other being like ‘University Answer’ type…big talks irrespective of the marks of the question.

To sum up, the first session of HR was quite an extreme type…with all the highs and lows…looking forward to ‘Wise’ lectures.
