Career change to a HR role

Hello!

I am looking to make a career change into a HR role and would love to ask some advice?

I have a retail background (currently a supervisor in luxury sales), so although I do not have any direct experience, I do fulfil perform team leader and performance assesment activities within my team. I have been in this industry for three years and have recognised that the aspects of my job I find the most fulfilling are the 'people' parts. This has lead me to pursue this change. As I am currently lacking in HR experience I am self funding my level 3 diploma in HR, which I am working through in my own time.

I wondered if anyone could offer any advice to a new starter on how to make the transition into the profession? From my own research a lot of roles, even the entry level admin assistant positions are asking for previous experience ( which I sadly lack).

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, 

Many thanks,

Emily
