Can you elaborate more on your job?

If it's co-ordinating / admin / operations work on training or doing low level briefing to blue collar / clerical workers, then 3k is about right, 3.5k max you can push I think.

If you want to increase pay, need to look for other bigger roles, otherwise no matter how many years of experience you have wont be worth much.

training ops 3k quite good already, most SMEs paying 2-2.5k and MNC 2.5-3k

Hi I am a degree grad in business and just went to a local small boutique hr consulting firm specializing in employee benefit for interview as a consulting senior associate. The company look quite small <10 people and their pay for freshie is apparently standard at 2.5k.

As the pay is so-so I try to ask more about career prospect. The interviewer, a very friendly angmo guy assured me that hr consulting will open a lot of doors to future management consulting and hr specialist compensation & benefits opportunites in MNC.

I am delima whether to continue the interview selection as this company is really very small and ask around also nobody heard before. I am open to it if really can lead to compensation & benefit specialst hr roles in the future as I read here and hear from others that this industry can pay very well compare to normal hr generalist or admin jobs.

Can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance.

It's better to start with bigger firms.

Tell them you're doing a short course (find some) and request that they put the selection process on hold. Then try to get a job with the bigger firms, failing which you can go back to this small firm and continue with the interview process (if still possible).

Not going to work one, nobody is going to stall entire hiring to wait for some low level asociate. I'm sure he tried bigger firm first no response that's why end up going to try his luck at this small company.

My advise as long as no penalty for resigning, you can always join them first and quit when better offer comes along.

Btw what sort of benefit they do? If is things like flexi platforms or insurance brokerage, I dont think it will help to get into management consulting or compensation/benefit specialist at all.

Thanks for your advise.

Base on what I understand during the interview the company specialise in annual leave, flex benefit, insurance and tying up with other vendor to provide welfare solution. I thought they can provide some experience in benefits that I can move to the compensation & benefit specialization in the future. Why you say it will not help?

Anybody would like to share their insights on HRIS specialist roles? Prospects, demand, salary range?

I'm currently a SAP HR consultant and I'm looking to move into a less technical role. I've been dealing with C&B modules (from SAP system point-of-view) and wondering if it's possible to switch directly into C&B?

I have no relevant HR education as my formal training is within the information systems domain.

Comments are appreciated.

Why you NO like small firms?

I work in a start-up 1st engineer here. Except for the ultra low pay, nothing to complain about.

Very hard to switch to C&B unless your finance / business consulting knowledge is very strong. Doing SAP modules is very different from actual policy work.

For starters if you want to move into corporate HRIS most likely go in at associate or specialist level. AFAIK demand for HRIS is quite strong as there is shortage and should be able to find if you are patient.

People with a few years HRIS consulting experience go in as HRIS associate in a global MNC should be able to ask for 7.5-10k depending on how relevant your experience is.
