Well, it completely depends on how much interest you have in these two subjects when they are taught to you in your first year.

But, since your major specialisation subject is HR, i would recommend you sales and marketing as marketing and HR are not that different- communication is the key in both. To stand out from the competition, today’s most effective HR teams are those that are adapting techniques from the marketing world, specifically branding. This is a smart move, companies with positive reputations get more job applications from top-notch candidates and hold on to their best and brightest people.

So, there is a major role played by marketing in HR field.

i hope this helps you!

Dear Aspirant,

Finance and Marketing are almost different domains.

According to me, finance consists of accounting, financial analysis, portfolio management and many more. But there some fields like insurance, demat accounts which involves sales at initial level. So marketing is involved in Finance domain also.

In marketing you have various fields to look upon like pure sales, Digital marketing, financial marketing, brand/ product management.

So think of which field you find more interesting by thinkin of your career in HR. Also the companies you wish to work with.

Hope this helps

All the best
