Progression post CIPD Level 5 qualification

Dede

Anyone else struggling to progress even after achieving level 5 In Human Resource management?  After qualifying, employers now want experience but with many organisations unwilling to give me an opportunity, I can't help but feel the qualification wasn't worth getting.

    Welcome to the communities.

    If you do a search on here you will find countless people in a similar situation and lots and lots of good advice. Mostly around networking, volunteering and being very very persistent.

    Qualifications are generally very worth getting but they are not golden tickets rather they are part of what’s needed to progress. Qualifications and progress are the dual ingredients.

    Keep trying and look at some of that past advice.

    Keith.

    Hi Dede,
    I replied to another similar post on this - stick with it, use LinkedIn, tailor your CV, ask for specific feedback from applications you have made and ask around, perhaps there are people you know who could use some HR support. Seek out volunteer opportunities.
    CIPD branch events are great for networking too. Your qualification is absolutely worth it but as Keith said, not an immediate way in.
