Things you wish you knew

Lee

Hi All, I qualify for my CIPD Level 3 in June, I have worked as an account manager for 15 years but have always had a keen interest in HR so have finally taken the jump and landed my first HR role which I start in a few weeks!

I'm thrilled to be starting this new chapter in my career, I've thoroughly been enjoying my studies and taking as much in as possible however I would like to be as prepared as possible going into my new role!

for all those working in a HR Advisor role, could you please share any words of advice you wish you had been given, or would go back and tell yourself when first starting out?

Thanks for you time!

Lee.

    Congratulations on your new role.
    The fact that you have worked hard and are gaining your CIPD level 3, shows that you can do this. Your new employers have thought this too.
    Is someone going to mentor you in within the company? Is the department you are going to work in the only HR department? Network, find and ask questions, never be frightened to ask, remember everyone starts somewhere.
    Also don't forget that you have a great tool here with CIPD, attend as many events and no day is ever the same in HR. :)
