Though I am more or less a beginner in Hr with around 1 and a half year of experience, but the story so far goes like this:
I was working in a training institution (newly opened), as a conselor. It was a part of a small Pvt company. The institution was not doing gr8, and I hardly had any work, so I was asked to assist the HR dept once in recruiting. The management was quite impressedwith me as I was able to close few positions. Then finally the institution closed down, simultaneously the Hr ex resigned, and I was transferred to the dept as HR Exec. So I fell into it. And then on....I enjoy every moment of my profession, esp as a generalist now.
And yes, in childhood I wanted to be a computer engineer. And then in my first HR job, I began recruiting them :)
So I firmly beleive, in life whatever happens, happens for good.
