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.

    I fell into it and then planned it....

     

    I originally took on a Events Coordinator/ Personnel Clerk role following a project implementing new systems fora well known retailer but left (despite thoroughly enjoying the personnel aspect of the role) to persue greater remuneration to purchase my first house.

     

    I found HR so difficult to get back into (everyone requiring 2+ years experience and CIPD) that I moved into warehouse operations management whilst embarking on my CIPD.

     

    5 years later (& a pay cut) I managed to move internally into a HR Admin role which I thouroughky enjhoyed and gave me the relevant experience to move onto HR Advisor.
