How did you get into HR??

Victoria

When networking I find that a lot of HR practioners "fell into" their HR careers.


I myself decided at age 17 that I wanted to do a BA in HRM and then I gained experience and went onto do my CIPD.


I'm interested to find out how others got into HR.

  • This is really interesting reading!


    I planned it - though it was hard to find that first route in. I had worked as a general administrator in a call centre, and was fascinated by the HR team there - fingers in every pie!!


    I looked around and eventually started as an HR Administrator at the company I am still at today, 6 years later.


    Unconventionally, some would say, I started working fresh from my A levels, and only went down the uni route a few years ago. Last year I completed an MA in HRM, which although a struggle whilst working full time, made sure I was financially secure at the same time as being a part-time student.
