Hi Joe....:-P
You have raised a very right question..... People like us those who are pursuing Distance learning Courses have 2 struggle alot...... but how do we make employers understand that a person holding DLP can be equally expert/qualified than a person with a regular course.... Everyone need a chance to prove himself/herself. So those who are qualified, really want to prove them should get the opportunity.
Atleast this awareness is necessary for ALL..................:)

hey Joe,
Look for a company that suits your potential. It all depends on the way you talk and ur attitude towards them. If u have a good communication skills and if u know how to express ideas into words then dats all it matters. Forget of what the company want as a qualification. We need to show them what we got and do our part.

Hi Joe,
I feel that experience and knowledge matter in deciding the success in any given field...
Your friend should see to it that she has got proper knowledge in HR (either same as those who have done full-time MBA or better would be ....if she can apply the theories that she has learnt in the Part-time course to the benefit of the industry in which she is working....) and surely she can get success...! All the best to her...
There's a quote in our ancient scriptures in Sanskrit: Aano bhadra krtavo yantu vishwatah ...which means: 'Let noble thoughts come from all directions'...These will come with lots of reading and also enriching yourself with experience...
I feel, knowledge coupled with relevant experience will matter the most in the long run...

Dear Joe,
I agree that most of the top companies look for full time MBA's.
But, in this regard, i would like to quote a small example.
We had an opening for HR Executive last year and we advertised for the same. Heading " MBA with min 2 years Experience"
We recieved a load of resumes where we faced problems processing them.
we understood there were lots of people with mba.
This year when the concerned person left our office, we planned to advertise, where we planned to have some filtration.
heading comes as
Full time MBA
60% from 10th to degree.
Specialisation in____________________
Result:
Only qualified persons fulfilling those criteria responded.
So i understood, Part time, distant education etc, were some of the reasons for FILTRATION Process
But, we also have many 'mba part time' candidates who does well in their present assignments.

Dear Joe,
MBA HR is a full time study course basically designed for students who can give their full time to the degrees and those completed this degrees are offered entry level positions in companies. whereas short courses are arranged for professional people or people already in jobs and just wanted to increase their knowledge and know-how about latest practices followed in the field. This is the only difference. anyways short courses are just meant for higher management positions with the blend of experience also.

Hi I agree with Dr. Peeyush about starting with a mid-sized company, gaining the experience while completing your p/t studies and then moving onto a better organisation. I'm sure a wise HR professional would rather hire an experienced person with p/t studies than a full-timer with shoddy experience.

Dear Joe,
This is really a very serious issue that you have raised in front of all the HR professionals and the students of HR....being a student of DLP (ICFAI) even i am suffering with the same problem, I have 1.5 yrs of experience.
I would like to ask all of you out there, that in HR experience matter or degree matters....???
As i have some of my friends who are at a good position (Unit HR, HR executive) in good reputed organization and they have acquired that position without a degree....of course later they had to get degree to grow further.....
Now what will you say on this my dear friends.....
degree or experience..... i know theoretical knowledge is equally important as practical.....but then y full time..... and not part time degree????
part time degree also gives the same knowledge as full time only difference is the classroom effect....theory is same.....
In fact i feel that part time serves the purpose more as you get the practical knowledge as well as u are studying which make things more clear......
Now the issue is company criteria…… I would suggest that we should raise the issues in journals (and u all can suggest where else) so that companies and the DLP institutes both should be aware of the gap between them.
What say friends??? I am not aware that how to go about it…but you all are more experienced and learned professionals to help us out in this…….

Hi:
Gone are the days when an organization expects its departments to work seperately achieving individual/functional targets. The current scenario expects its employees to have a basic idea of all its functions.
This is more true for a function like HR where has to engage and resolve issues for employees from various functions (sales,marketing,finance,operations,etc...)
Would a person having done MBA as part-time or through distant education (and without actual hands-on experience) fulfill the above mentioned criteria???
With colleges churning out full time MBAs every year, why would a company invest in someone with a part-time or distant eduication MBA when full-time MBAs can be easily recruited?
Having said, I would also like to clarify that the type of education does not guarantee professional success. The type of education comes into play only during the initial years after which rise in an organization is solely based on merit and capabilities....

MM
