Can somebody tell how can I get knowledge of HR. Please suggest books, magazines, and provide pdfs you have.

aditi.n · January 25, 2010, 4:56am

Can anyone tell me their contact numbers at which we can call to know the results?
I've to ask for two of my friends.
Reply by mail is taking too much time. Calling them up personally would be better, I guess.

Hello all,
It is requested to all the call-getters to fill in their details on the link to the spreadsheet provided, so that we can have a fair idea as to how many people have been called for further rounds this year.
All the best! :cheerio:

http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Ap0k75E_MBTQdC1ycXMtaEl6bk9mblRsN3JISmxnYUE&hl;=en

PS-1)This sheet is only for those who've got a call from HRM&LR;.
2)Please fill in the Serial No. carefully.
3)Score can be put once the scorecards are mailed.

hi evrybdy
congratz folks!
great that u are through the intial hurdle....
just one more to go..

bt lemme tel u one thing...
the cut-offs though never announced officially by TISS, are speculative n done by various entrance coaching centers...so plz dnt waste ur precious time on discussing/thinking abt things that r past.

We are there to answer ur queries to the best of our abilities for the next MAHAYUDDH lined up... dnt worry, you wil see others joining this thread shortly frm our batch 2009-11..

Finally TISS doesnt mails SCORECARDS to anybdy...unless they have mentioned it in their brochure that they wil do so (which i doubt they havnt)

all one gets is qualified/not qualified status.

plus nobody knows abt how many calls TISS makes every year, there are always waiting calls which get converted at last moment
Every year there are sum substantial changes.

PS: The ent test ppr for this year had major changes, plus no. of seats have also been hiked up. This year pattern m nt aware of, bt in prev years, the ratio was around 1 seat : 8 or 10 candidates

there is no point, thinking abt the magnitude of the fyt.
Plz be assured abt one thing, if u hav recvd a GD/PI call for any program (HR included) final decision on making the final list of candidates will nt be complied till each call getter has had his fair chance of appearing before PI panel

Therefore,I request all of you to channelize ur dear energies in preparing for the final hurdle, rather than thinking abt wat and how many

regards
Congratz everybdy again...
see you shortly...

tc and gud luck!

Dont worry about your engineering background. There are quite a lot in our class. Me being one.
Regarding gd/pi please go through magazines like human factor, business week where there are case studies.
Please go through last years threads where ppl have mentioned about their gd/pi experience
Your interview can go any way. you can be asked about ur work ex, about your interest in hr, the hr in your company, about your sop. it can be anything. I was grilled on my previous company's HR , my sop and the two questions which any person appearing for a tiss interview, should be ready to answer any time of the day. Why hr and why tiss.

As i mentioned in my previous post , work on your sop because i think thats the base on which your pi will be conducted

kaloobhai · January 25, 2010, 8:09am

zain.imfy · January 25, 2010, 11:46am

Thanks for all the posts puys! And I'm too looking forward to more interaction with TISS seniors so that we can get more help

souvik.mazumdar · January 25, 2010, 11:52am

Congrats to all the call getters... We are the batch of 9/11 and we will try to make this process as easy for you as we can... We will soon come out with a consolidated list of GD topics and potential PI questions... That should be helpful... For any other queries feel free to post on this forum or send us messages

neverland87 · January 25, 2010, 11:57am

Hello Seniors,

Thanks a lot for coming forward to help us.

Can you please tell me if people with work-ex are given weightage over the freshers during the selection process? I am a fresher and I am curious to know about the ratio of people with and without work-ex in tiss hrm. Kindly reply.

souvik.mazumdar · January 25, 2010, 12:04pm

It is important for all the call getters to know that being a fresher or having workex will not play any significant role in your selection... Selection will mainly depend on how you guys are able to convince the panel about your interest in HR and in TISS... The more genuine you seem the better are your chances...
As for numbers.... our class has exactly a 50:50 mix of freshers and workex people... So chill and enjoy the rest of the day

akshay.vannery · January 25, 2010, 12:13pm

@Souvik..
I know this is too early for such a question, but a genuine doubt...
You said that 50% of your class is freshers...
So do they get summer placements/ Final placements of the same level calibre as the experienced guys??
Also, Does anyone having Work experience/ Prior academic knowledge of HR have an edge over the others in the GD/ Pis??

Just curious.

Thanks!!

zain.imfy · January 25, 2010, 12:29pm

Aim for excellence..success will automatically follow you!!! :D

Mr. Wangdu!

doctor_of_mba · January 25, 2010, 1:25pm

@Akshay....
Seriously Man this is too early to ask this question as you yourself rightly said....
But your concerns and notions are respected coz you are here to make an informed decision if you finally make it there....And we all are here to help you all make informed decisions...:) :)
Well if you are having a prior HR work exp,it may slightly help you in the GD/PI but again 'slightly' is the word....We jus have two people in our batch of 48 who have prior HR work exp,so you can imagine that it is not at all a big criteria...
Again work exp candidates have greater knowledge/perform better than freshers is just a big myth coz hardly anyone in their short work experience gets to interact with HR people to actually know about them....So chill out :grin:
As far as the main concern about placement goes,you know being a fresher sometimes is really beneficial especially during summer placements because many companies look for fresh blood during their summer placements...:):)
As far as the pay packages go,I dont see a huge difference there either....And even if you are a fresher,if you have the goods and deliver it well then no one can stop you from earning more than your work ex peers...:grin:There are lot many examples from past that reiterate my previous statement....
That doesnt mean that work experience is bad....Many companies also want work exp people(relevant/not relevant)....And even they may end up getting the highest pay packages...So the moral of the story is there everything for everyone at TISS....
We all welcome you with open arms and request you all to jus keep on shooting your querries...We will be more than glad to respond...:grin:
And finally guys plz plz plz concentrate on the immediate task at hand and do well in your GD/PI....Forget everything else for time being...All the best...or shud I say All Iz Well
