Hello,
I have been fortunate enough to be offered an interview for an entry level HR Administrator (currently self funding my CIPD L3 Foundation Certificate in People Practice). I do not currently work with a HR environment but have worked in cooperation with HR in some previous roles such as with recruiting, interviewing and onboarding. I have experience in administration too. I have been informed that the interview will last 90 min with a 45 minute "role related task". Any advice people could offer so I can prepare myself for this would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you SLJ for your advice. I will certainly use it when prepping for other interviews. Sadly I was not successful this time. I failed to mention that it was an internal application so I'm already employee within the organisation but in a different department, so luckily, I already knew quite a lot about the organisation. However, I did a lot of research around the HR department and discovered they are implementing a change programme so I made sure to include that in my application which I was told impressed them.

Sophie, sorry to hear you do not get the job. As someone who worked as a contractor for many years there is one simple truth - there is always another job!
More importantly, what did you learn from the interview, are there things you could have done differently?
