Given a choice between HR and Marketing, which one would you choose?

i ll choose marketing coz as per my view on comparing MARKETING & HR there is less competition in marketing than HR..........

and no body wants to take risk in present market............
 
Hi all,
I am leaning towards HR. I currently started working for a company where I am doing HR transactions which is data entry for HR; it’s a start in the right direction for me as I want to be an HR Rep and then one day the VP of HR. However I was unaware that one needed a science background to go into HR. How much science does one need and does anyone know why?
 
Hi,
In marketing/ sales field a person may be eligible to become a VP post mba 12 years work ex. carrer path of HR depends a lot on your education background. My carrer interest is HR.
 
i will chose marketing just bcoz of the fact that those who specialize in Marketing field can get better pay package than any1 HR field.
 
ive already been thru the dilemma , finally going with Marketing.
it appears to me as a very multidisciplinary domain wherein all aspects of your graduation and mba expertise can come into full use.
HR seems to me as a space focused with documentation , headhunting and rcord keeping which didnt really appeal to me.

Hi frens as far as my opnion is concernd abt this topic is that...Every Spec has its own pros as well as cons too...one must do self SWOT(Strength,Weakness,Opportunities n Threats) by taking certain measures to evalute n thn choose which one best suits to him/her. I cant b able to scale these all progs..if maketing bring revenue , than on other side HR motivates n organise teams to earn those revenues...without employees contribution former aspect is seem impossible...whereas MIS give them a cutting edge to earn those revenues in a Systematic n quicker way...See all these are interdepent,interrelated n integrated fields...Try ur exp. n analysis it in more effective manner...Thnx
 
i will surely go for human resource mang., as it is the mostly opted by girls, it has a wider concept & scope though marketing seems to be a vry chalenging field with innovative techniques coming up every single day.
 
I would rather like to rate them rather than making a comparison as each are equally vital. In the organization's point of view: HR - 6; marketing - 8. (as they basically concentrate on the revenue dept)
Based on jobs: HR - 8; marketing - 7 (as HR provides a good pay package and comfortable work environment)
To sum it up, as chirag mentioned it is completely dependent on the individual's perception and interests.
 
hey everyone.. my choice would be marketing... hands down winner.... but it doesn't mean it has to be the same for all. whatever u take up make sure that u are actually intreated in the subject rather than jus lookin at it from the 'job' pint of view.
cheers
 
sure i'll go marketing because i can get a platform to expose my self better and i can reach my goals faster in marketing compare to hr bcz of the current economic crisis
 
obviously i would prefer marketing..Hr is jus a support function...n no matter what one says or HR can nvr b part of strategic plans of org
