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

yess!! it depends on an individual.....im persuing my career in marketing....not because its a backbone of any organisation...but because im interested in it...and can give me a better future
 
i would prefer marketing rather than hr... in marketing field u are mingling with many people so u get a good exposure ...hr is a cool job and tre s no room to learn new things...as a payscale wise too marketing is better then hr
 
both streams have their own relevance,bt i wud still prefer HR as it gives an opportunity to influence the overall functioning of the organisation
 
All the specialisations i.e Marketing, HR, Finance, Communications etc are all very important aspects of any business organisations. You cant think of a business which doesnt requires any kind of people in it, so HR is involved. Finance is an important panorama of the whole business picture, you cant think of a business organization which doesnt involve money in it. And to grow your organisation, Marketing becomes an unseparated tool b'coz creating, communication and delivering values to satisfy customers is Marketing.

And it all depends about the liking and attachment towards a subject. My calling comes from Marketing, and i would go with it...

Hey if given a choice between the two i would opt for HR because as the name itself suggests that Human Resource is the most important asset of any organization and no one would want to lose it.
Interpersonal skills is required to understand your employees and i am very good in maintaining good relations with every1.

Two of the most prefered specializations that students choose in their MBA are HR and Marketing, other than Finance. Many students are skeptical about taking up Marketing as specialization as one does not become the VP of Marketing immediately after the course. There is a common perception that a student with Marketing specialization may even be placed as a sales representative in a firm, which is absolutely ridiculous considering the effort the student has to give to complete a MBA course. However, HR does not have any such options and the salaries for HR people are pretty good too. However, a science background is mandatory for HR. Which one do you prefer? Is one better than the other or are both of them equally lucrative?
How would you rate the following specializations on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best?
Finance
HR
Marketing
Information Systems Management

Lets talk about it guys!

I hv planned to choose Finance as major and Marketing as minor
 
hello...given a choice i wud prefer marketing as understanding the market(consumer behaviour) is the key for any organisation to succeed..
 
I think both are almost the same, as both has to sell. As an HR manager u r selling the product (employment) to client (prospects) who are willing to join generally which gives him/her the edge over his client whereas a sales manager has to sell it to client who has a lot of options (threat) which gives the edge to client instead of sales manager. I think that it makes thing quite obvious as to wat should be our preference if the choice is ours...
 
I prefer marketing because marketing is my passion. But never leave aside the HR angle too. For anyone to be a good manager, we need to be a good HR Manager first!
 
i would prefer choosing HR because i am good at interacting with other people, good in working as a team member and also understand human behaviour in different situations.
 
buddy......that totally depends upon your interest and the how much you want to struggle....Hardwork is required everywher...be it Fin. , HR or Mktg...
