CIPD L7 qualified 2 years ago... still not managed to land myself any jobs in HR

I acquired my CIPD level 7 certificate 2 years ago, yet I still have not managed to land myself any jobs in HR entry level positions.Seems like even for HR admin level jobs employers are looking for someone with 1/2 years HR experience. How one is suppose to gain any experience without getting an opportunity to work at entry level position? And if some one has 1/2 years HR admin level experience then wouldnt make more sense for them to look for something better given most entry level HR positions are offering same level of rewards. Even some customer service positions offer more monetary value then HR assistant positions . Hope you experts can give me some answers.

    There are loads of threads on the Communities about this - it's probably the question that gets asked most often. If you have a look at some of those threads you'll see there's some great advice about how to go about getting that experience. Mostly it comes down to being persistent, thinking creatively about which jobs might give you the experience you need and just getting a little bit lucky.

    Kind regards and good luck
