Fresher In HR Role looking for a job
I am a recent MBA graduate (awaiting my final semester results) and currently seeking an HR position in Kolkata. I have 13 months of apprenticeship experience at UltraTech Cement Ltd., but unfortunately, they did not absorb me after the program.
Despite having worked in a reputed MNC and gaining more hands-on HR experience than some of the actual HR staff there, I am still being considered a fresher by most companies. Even if someone is willing to offer me an opportunity, the salary offered is usually around ₹13k.
I'm feeling extremely frustrated and unsure of what steps to take next. If you could provide any suggestions, guidance, or tips on how to prepare myself better or find relevant job opportunities, I would be truly grateful.
