Ofcourse thats just one function that HR offers.. but thats an example to stress the need for HR professionals. Risking exaggeration i would like to quote a lot of professional speakers who've come down for Guest lectures, saying things like HR pro's are going to be in greatest demand with services dominating the business ideologies.

Ok horizontals are the functions viz. Finance, HR, Operations and Mktng.
Here at Great Lakes you don't get exposed exclusively to Hr. We have something like Strategy, OB and Hr clubbed under a common umbrella.
So if you are looking for specific HR stuff only you might want to consider other options. Otherwise the topics covered under this umbrella here are exciting.
Companies who've already specified their requirements in HR include Ford, HCL,E-serv to name a few. HR consultancies like Ma Foi and Mercer have recruited from Great Lakes in the past and are likely to visit us again. This is a purely personal picture that i can share as far as Hr is concerned.
You are welcome to ask more if you want and i'l try my best to answer. In the current batch there are around 7-8 students who have taken this Horizontal as their Major/Minor. Hope the data helps
ciao.

Thanks man. What abt last year's placements? Any info on IT? Planning to come down sometime next month to get a feel of the campus.

Regards,
Ashok.

A very happy new year to all of you out there! May this year bring truck loads of happiness and successes in your personal and professional careers!

The results for the Phase I Kolkata round were declared today and can be found out over phone.

Specific query on IT related HR... well lets see what the companies have to offer in the coming weeks. A few of the pioneer (1st batch) students are placed in HCL Infy Allsec TCS etc. I don't have an accurate information on the kind of work they are actually into. Btw the number of students specializing in HR was around 7. That's something that you might want to know for a complete picture
Ciao
