Follow-up: Gaining Practical HR Experience in London

Hi everyone,

I previously reached out for advice on how I could gain practical HR experience alongside my MSc, and I really appreciated the guidance and suggestions you shared with me at the time.

While I wasn’t able to find a suitable fully remote opportunity that I could balance alongside my studies, I’m now approaching the end of my MSc in Human Resource Management and will soon be relocating to London to look for a full-time HR opportunity.

As my circumstances are changing, I wanted to reach out again for your advice. In the meantime, I’d really like to gain some hands-on HR experience through a paid part-time role or internship, either in London or fully remote. Following six years of international professional experience, I have transferable experience in project coordination, data analysis and stakeholder communication, and I’m confident using Microsoft Office.

Would you have any recommendations on where I could look for these kinds of opportunities, or know of any organisations or networks that might offer them? I’m ideally looking for paid opportunities rather than voluntary roles, as I’ll also need to support my living costs.

I’d really appreciate any advice or suggestions. Thank you again for your support!
