Perhaps I am! I’ve been applying for HR jobs left, right and centre and nothing, not even an interview. It’s really demotivating as I worked extremely hard to get my CIPD qualification, so much so that I am about to start my level 7. Now I may not have worked in a solely HR role but I do have experience and many transferable skills that I feel would benefit many organisations. I would have thought that being CIPD qualified would mean something? And it’s not like I am applying for BP roles. I know I need to take a pay cut and work my way up but there’s just been no interest in what I have to offer
Hey Becci!!! Thanks for the response. Applying for lots of positions and actually managed to het a few interviews, as well as a lot of rejections. However, feedback has been generally very good so hoping that the right opportunity will come by soon. Andy
Andrew not sure which CIPD branch you're linked to geographically, but many branches will happily help you with some career support etc. It's worth contacting the branch to see if anyone might be able to help. Also a great way of extending your knowledge on HR topics through their free events and networking with fellow professionals in your area. www.cipd.co.uk/.../branches-listing

Hi Johanna. Thanks for reaching out. I definitely need to make more use of the services available and really want to attend some events so will take a look and see what is out there. Andy
