HR in the US

Hi there,

I have just moved to the US and unfortunately the market here is very different. With my experience in the UK it appears that neither my qualifications or experience is getting me though to interview stage.  Is there any tips or advice you can offer me? I am now considering whether I should study for the SHERM certificate,

Any advice would be helpful.

Regards,

Lin

  • Hi Lin,

    I work in the UK and I am responsible for our Texas office. You may have already checked out SHRM website.

    Depending on where in the US you have moved too there are a number of local federal sites that you can gain employment law details. Some of these sites also have local employment law seminars / workshop that you can attend too. Texas Workforce Commission is one that I use, however it will depend on the State you are working in.

    I have not got my SHRM qualification, however I use a number of sites to help me out and have got a grasp on how to handle situation through transferrable skills gained in UK

    Good Luck if you have any further questions feel free to contact me.

    thanks
