HR work experience

Norma

Hello,

i have started a CIPD level 3 in HR and I am trying to look for work experience to build up my CV in the field. 

If there are any relevant links or advice anyone can give me I’d greatly appreciate it.

I would love a work mentor to be able to guide me. I worked as a nanny for my years and transitioned into the TV industry Im 2019. I realised I’d like to work in HR but within a creative setting. Due to Covid I lost my job and have reached out to my last work setting asking if I could have a chat with the HR department to  see if I can get some advice or help. I have also been applying online and looked for volunteer jobs but have struggled.

if there is any help within the CIPD family on this please let me know ! 

Thanks

All the best

Norma

  • Hi Norma - thank you for your post. There may be someone on the Community who would be a great match for you - there are some lovely people on here :) Alternatively, if you're 18-24 and unemployed (if you have a Saturday-type job you'll still be fine to apply) then you can sign up for Steps Ahead Mentoring. Otherwise we would suggest member-to-member mentoring which is all done via our local branches. The only issue with this route is that not all branches have active mentors currently. www.cipd.co.uk/.../success-stories

    Hi Johanna, thank you so much for your response and advice. Unfortunately I am in the older bracket 35! (Eeek) so not young enough for that but I will definitely see if there are any mentors available via my local branch.

    And yes if there are any lovely people here that could help out I’m anyway that would be great !

    Thanks again!
