2. Step-1
• Finally You got an MBA HR? Did not get hired in campus?
• Degree is a very small step and not apassport to great job
• How much knowledge you got and retained will ensure success.
• I have interviewed tons of HR graduates who do not even answer
correctly the question on implications of maslow’s model on
employee motivation and retention
• Do not know difference between behavior and attitude
