At Disguy, If you take the route of expatriate the nysc certificate is not required but then the organisation would have to sort out your work permit and other requirements for your employment. Now expatraites are hired becuse the skill is specialised and scarce so some of the legal requirements for hiring expatriates are that they are understudied by I think 2 employees to ensure skill transfer. Now if you do not have a skill that is scarce, no decent firm will go through the trouble of getting you a work permit when they can just hire an indigene with similar or better skills. Especially when they know you are Nigerian and you wee not hired from another country but are living in Nigeria.

The NYSC is better pursued sooner than later because if one job doesn't demand it, the next job might and you just limit your options. Some firms actually help their employees sort out the NYSC certification, particular when they have a number of employees who may have studied abroad and may not have done it immediately after university.

@ ajilete,

I dont think the lectures are so expensive when you compare it to some other professional exams. If you can afford it, please pay and attend lectures.


On the other hand, if you think its expensive you should try 2 study really hard on your own.


I studied 4d part 2 exams on my own and I passed, but I attended lectures 4d other diets and passed too. I would say that it was easier 4 me when I attended lectures than when I studied on my own.

Dear All,
Pls let's keep this thread alive. Just getting to know about it and having read threads since inception, I must confess I av missed a lot. But I believe it's better late than never. I must give kudos to yemmight for his efforts so far. You are an inspiration to some of us who want to pursue carreer in HR.

Hello House,

I work as a Human Resource generalist in an oil and Gas firm.

I have a task at hand.The task is to conduct a research on at least ten differences between Human Resource and Personnel Management.

if anybody has anything to contribute,i will greatly appreciate.

Thank You

Chinye,
2 things please.

There are lots of different opinions and I think it is the best if you can read about all these and then try to see if you can make out something. I googled the question "diff btw hr & pm" and i have countless of sites which I am still going through. I will advise you do same.

secondly, I just wrote a test for the position of Hr generalist and i am still waiting until employment before knowing what am I to do. I just applied because I want to pursue a career in HR. Is it different from normal HR Manager or less in position. What does it entails functionally?

Will be grateful for your opinion.

Hello Igbalajobi,
thanks for your response.

I have goggled the research topics severally and i dont seem to come up with a clear cut thing.

as for your query, the HR generalist role is lower than the post of an HR manager.an Hr generalist in a company is one that combines all HR functions like performance appraisals,training,recruitment,payroll admn etc.an HR generalist could be a supervisory position but is never a manager, if an HR generalist becomes a manager the title changes to HR-manager.Hope this clarifies?

It sure does. tx
As for the outcome of the research, i seem to be more confused after reading the site. They are more of saying there is no clear-cut difference and that PM is the old term while Hr is advanced. I am printing all that i researched (about 8 page in ms word), take it home & read to see if I can get something out.

Hoping to share more with & learn more from you & others in the house. Afterall you be experienced mentor
