Hello Fishes.. need your valuable suggestions for my cousin who wishes to pursue her career in Workday. She finished her MBA HR back in 2013 and then worked a few years as Asst Professor for MBA students. Since then she has been on break because of Marriage, COVID and Kids etc. Now she wants to learn Workday functional side and explore job opportunities as she does not have any technical background.

So Appreciate your inputs on the approach, feasibility and job opportunities (even as a fresher)

Hi is there any particular reason why she wants to pursue workday consulting after completing an MBA in HR. She can explore HR consulting or HRBP roles as well. As someone who jumped into workday after doing an MBA in HR I am desperately trying to move out of it and honestly would not recommend making this switch post having an MBA in HR specifically

She never worked as HR though. Since she is planning to start working now, she thought it would be better to learn one of these ERP tools with a better career than starting as HR for a petty pay. Please feel free to share your valuable suggestions and experience.

I also wonder why you want to move back to HR consulting? Any specific reason ?
