Almost every small to large organisation needs HR professionals, irrespective of the industry you choose. However, having some experience managing people from a similar industry as your next one always gives you a higher preference. For example, if you have been an HR professional with an advertising agency, you would be a better choice than say, an HR professional from an IT company, when being considered for another creative agency.
Since HR jobs are not limited by any industry, your options are wide. So, when you start looking, you have the option of choosing which industry you wish to enter. Some of the popular industries among HR professionals are hospitality, IT, finance, technology, education, healthcare, sales and administration, to name a few.
