Hello everyone,
I have just taken voluntary redundancy from working in lower management in HE for the last 23-years. I have experience of some recruitment, interviewing, JDs, performance management etc and I am also a school Governor where I have chaired complaints hearings etc. I have really enjoyed the HR aspects and have been thinking of doing my L3. However I’m 52 and wondering whether you all think I’m too old to re-train and start a entry level HR role. I’m not interested in climbing the ladder and would be happy with a HR Administration role or Assistant role. What are your thoughts? Too old? Honest opinions please, I’m happy with honest, construct opinions.
Thank you!
Sarah
I would spend some time reading the many many threads on here about people trying to get into HR jobs without experience. Not to put you off but to give you a realistic appraisal of the mountain you may face even when qualified. Certainly no harm in doing a L3 course .....but dont expect doors to open magically afterwards you will have to work very hard and have some luck to get into HR
