handled benefits administration, kept personal files and other records, managed the hiring process, and
provided other administrative services. These functions were viewed as administrative necessities, but not as
integral parts of the core business.

been automated and/or outsourced. The positive result of these changes is that HR professionals have the

Organizations are looking for bright candidates, who can add value to the organization and hold the torch of
HR profession.

There is woeful inadequacy, huge gap between what universities / institutes churn out students and what
Industry need. The Challenges to HR Professionals is to set up H R processes, Systems, frameworks and
methodologies that create an institutionalized foundation to deliver great results consistently.
