Getting in to HR

Jo

I have a friend who has no HR experience but is looking to get in to HR work.  She has applied for jobs but hasn't had any luck.  She would be happy to start at the bottom but how is it best to do this?  She's found that most companies offering apprenticeships are focussing on younger age groups (she is 35-40).  Any advice greatly appreciated.

    This comes up quite frequently so a search will be worthwhile.

    It will be very tough. Main avenue will be via a admin job and moving cross up. Apply for lots of jobs, Volunteer. Try and get some experience in her current employer. be prepared to take almost anything linked to HR/Training/recruitment. Look at working fro a recruitment agency (many hate it but its a step on the way)

    Keep plugging way
