I remember that the first thing people told me when I said I want to be an HR was whether I wanted to do so because it's an easy job. Others supported my decision saying HR is good for me because I'm a girl and yet others advised against it because they felt that there's no future in HR. 

Today as I eagerly wait to convert my HRM calls, I can see many others around me wondering whether this field is good for them.

These are just few of the reasons why I decided to apply for only HRM programmes. If you still feel that perhaps you would be more interested in other domains like Marketing or Finance, then look up what skills do these domains require and whether you have these in you.

If you too are like me and feel that you are ready to become a people manager, do not think any further and join that HRM programme that you were able to convert.
