I am going to be graduating with a Bachelors in Business Admin. with an HR emphasis in about 4 weeks. I have been sending out resumes in my area (to what few openings there are) and even the ones that I have heard a response to have subsequently cancelled the job or have filled it internally. I have been working for a year while attending school as an interviewer for a staffing agency. I think that part of the problem is the area that I live in is heavy in the manufacturing industry and with the economy scare that had been going on in the last 2 months or so, alot of businesses in this area have been laying off rather than hiring. I know that the first thing that is going to be said is relocate. Unfortunately that is not an option for me. Is there anything that anyone can suggest? |

They key to being a true HR professional is to truly be a business partner. To be that you have to have a grasp on the operational side of the business. My suggestion would be to seek out a managerial position (not just HR) and learn the business from the inside and then move into HR! |
