Where to start my HR career?

Swarnim

Hi everyone, I’m Sasha (currently close to finishing off my Level 5). I have been looking into entry level job roles to start off my HR career but most if not all have asked me for previous experience. Can someone guide me in terms of where to start looking for some work experience? It would mean a lot, thankyou!

  • Hi Swarnim,
    Prior to me getting into HR, I had looked for entry level HR roles and every single one wanted experience, I could not even get an interview.

    I found my way in through a general admin role, in a smaller company where people 'wore quite a few hats', I made myself available for any lower level HR tasks and in time, took on more and more.

    Eventually, the manager of the team moved on and I took on their workload and subsequently developed a much stronger HR function within the Business.

    I have spoken to quite a few people who found their way in through general admin / office roles of smaller Business'.

    Just one idea, good luck ! :)
