Calling all HR Execs! Can A Non Human Resources graduate get a job and Work in HR ?
I Completed my studies with a degree in Information Technology and Management and I worked in a bank for 1 year ( contract). My contract expired before I could look for another job.
Now I am teaching part time while waiting for a job offer and I am contemplating a career switch.
Can I get a job in HR? What does a person in Human Resources do, besides Hiring and firing ? Is it very stressful working in HR? Whats the pay like ?What do they look for in a person for a HR job?
Do I have to have special qualifications like a diploma or Certificate or is it an on the job training like sales in the bank?
And Also, how do you answer interview questions, when you apply for a job in HR, and they throw you an interview for the job in the IT department?

Human Resources Won’t Let Me Transfer To Another Department,?

admin — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 00:26:58 +0000

My racist supervisor has written me up twice in 2 months since he heard I was going to transfer to another department. Up until now I had a good employee record. Human resources says I can’t transfer until a year has passed to drop a writeoff from my record. I went to school and got my certificate for this other position now it was all for nothing. Human resources says they have to be fair on all there policy’s (which is understandable) I just feel they should use a little more discretion on the severity of a writeup before holding someone back for advancing their career. Any advice on what I can legally do to fight this. The write ups were my first offense ever.

Is Double Majoring In Public Administration & Sociology Good If I Want To Pursue A Career In Human Resources?

admin — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 00:28:29 +0000

I’m aware that having a degree in business administration is good, but I am not that good in math. Also, all the math courses and other courses that I must take before I can transfer to a university does not fit into my time schedule or plans for the future. The two majors that I have chosen are majors that I have spent hours researching on and feel that they are the best fit for me and for my career. I just need some different thoughts concerning my decision.
I know that these two majors are a better fit for me and I actually will enjoy double majoring in public administration and sociology. I already have an A.A. degree and two certificate of achievements in general management and human resources management obtained through my local community college. I have zero job experience in human resources and would like to know if I will be able to land some type of an entry-level position in human resources once I am finished with college.
Do any of you think I am on the right path? Let me know what your thoughts and feelings are concerning my decision. I will award 10 points to the best answer of course and I will be checking back often to read all the replies. Thank you.
