Hi everyone, I need guidance in choosing the right career path. I have a B.Com and an MBA (HR & Finance) but struggled to find a suitable job. I started as a Business Development Executive (Sales, 6 months, 3 LPA, Bengaluru), then worked as an Accounts Executive but left due to health issues and location constraints (2 months). Later, I joined as a Process Associate in an insurance company, but it lacks growth, a good package, and relevance to my field. Now, I want to switch careers. Should I choose HR, Finance, or transition into IT (Data Analyst/Business Analyst)? Please suggest the best path, job roles, and courses needed to secure a job quickly. Looking forward to your guidance!

Why not combine your skills? I think HR Analytics or Finance Analytics could be a sweet spot for you. If IT sounds more appealing, Data Analyst or Business Analyst roles are a fast way to break into tech. Boot camps could help you learn quickly.

[an educator](username) Skills combine karna accha lagta hai lekin HR aur Finance Analytics ko zyada value nahi milti. Data aur Business Analyst roles bhi tech mein entry ka shortcut nahi hain aur boot camps sirf certificate dete hain as such koi usefull skill nahi

HR and Finance are solid choices too, but I think you might need more certifications or experience to really jump in.

[theshark](username) Arre yaar certifications aur experience ki baat mat karo Hr aur finance mein toh bohot log without certifications bhi aa jaate hain. Aajkal networking aur thoda hustle karna zyada kaam aata hai.

If you’re into tech, I’d definitely say go for Data or Business Analyst roles...those are in high demand. You could try picking up Tableau or Power BI skills too.

You’ve got a solid base! If I were you and leaning toward IT, I’d suggest picking up some SQL, Python, and data visualization skills

[insideoutt](username) Bhai SQL Python wagera sab thik hai par agar logic aur problem solving accha ho toh tools se zyada kaam chal jaata hai. Har cheez seekhna zaroori nahi

If you're into working with people, HR could be a good choice for you. But if you’re leaning more towards tech, Data Analyst or Business Analyst roles are booming right now. I’d even suggest HR analytics if you’re interested in combining both

[cerealkiller](username) Hr only if you enjoy office politics then sure but Data and Business Analyst roles are where the real growth is..... hr analytics is just a mediocre middle ground.

If I were in your shoes, I’d look at IT roles like Data Analyst or Business Analyst...those are in high demand. It’s also possible to go into HR, but you might need more experience or certifications to get started.
