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.

  • It was love that did it for me! Not for HR but for my then girlfriend (now wife). We both worked in Marketing and decided that we didn't want to be together 24/7 so I asked 'Personnel' if they could find me another job. For some perverse reason, which I never quite understood, they suggested I join them.


    After 17 years in the profession I moved in to business operations management but I just can't get it out of my system and am now trying to move back in to HR. Oh, and we're still married.
