MBA in Marketing: Better marketing is the panacea that companies have prescribed for themselves to ward off the ills of recession. Therefore, MBAs from the Marketing stream are even more sought after than they were in good times earlier. A buffet of various jobs in industries such as retail, banking, hospitality, media, information technology (IT) and information technology enabled services (ITES), and free-moving consumer goods (FMCG) is lavishly spread before them. Designation in marketing such as brand manager, sales manager, marketing manager, product manager, market research analyst, media planner, and Internet marketing manager. MBA in HR Management caters for those wanting to develop a management career in HR and strategy, the internationalization process and the shifting HRM agenda.

Hi Dixit, Both the courses are great at their levels, but it depends how you want to shape your career or future. If you can do hard work and can do multiple things at one time, you should join Marketing MBA. It is an amalgamation of a different skill set like; you have to sales and advertising and other related things with it, you have to understand consumer behavior. On another hand, MBA in HR has a different approach, here you have to understand employee behavior and their improvements, you have to focus on human resource and their skill set, MBA HR is less hectic job compare to Marketing. In the end, it's your call.

Both HR & Marketing are important in business and both require different skill-sets. In my opinion, MBA in marketing would have better scope because: 1. Marketing is closer to the revenue of a business. Generally, companies consider marketing as profit-center and HR as Cost-center. If you do well in marketing, your contribution would be easily recognised by top management. 2. I think marketing would have more jobs. As soon as a startup is founded, marketing executives are needed. However, HR exec's hiring could be postponed or outsourced till company becomes bit stable. In the same company, size of marketing team would be bigger than size of HR team. 3. Many B-schools don't offer HR discipline, but almost everyone offers Marketing. So, you may get less options to study HR. It could also be seen as a signal about demands of jobs. However, HR has some advantages as well. If everyone starts thinking like the above points, you would get less competition in HR :). So, with lesser efforts, you can easily grow in HR career ladder also. Between, most of the top managers need to learn HR skills over the time because they need to hire, fire, retain & mentor employees & team. XLRI is one of the best B-schools for HR. If you are passionate about HR's roles & responsibilities, then no harm in learning it.
