Get a real job. HR is not a real job.

Yasss finally I am seeing a lot of content creators sharing stuff about HR. I am a second year college student studying Business Administration Major in Human Resource Management. I am worried what to expect in the real business world since I know it will be a different experience and view when working in HR. I assumed there are a lot of pressure as an HR staff or manager as you are like the bridge between the top management and employees. In addition from that, the responsibilities and duties of being an HR. It made me terrified to think about it, which is why I am thankful for content creators like you who share your experiences and knowledge about working in HR. Thank you so much for this!

As an executive assistant who is used to handling everything administrative, I feel so seen by the executive assistants identifying as HR managers call-out! That said, I have found it's my favorite aspect of the job- I love the mix of humanness and practicality and think I might go back to school to specialize!

SUPER helpful. I’m currently working for a small-mid size staffing agency as an HR Generalist / Compliance Administrator. I do a lot of background checks, compliance clearance, on boarding and off boarding, and a lot of stuff to do with visas. I like it but I’m basically the only person in the department, and it’s a ton of work. There’s a lot of autonomy like you said, but there’s a ton of responsibility and you’re pretty alone in the situation and there aren’t a lot of people to turn to for help or advice. I wish we had more people on the team, it would be a lot better.

Thanks so much for popping by! Yep it can be a lot of admin 😅 My advice would be to build a business case for a part-time support, or build capability in your line managers so they can take on some of those people-management responsibilities. For example, I’ve previously asked hiring managers to compile compliance documents for their hires, so that it’s one less administrative thing I have to do in chasing up information. It depends on your org though of course. Hang in there 😊

In a professional services environment (engineering) maybe once a month. It really depends on the culture of the organisation.

@annefloreskepu

3 жыл бұрын

DrumKiller2 heya! I’m sorry I didn’t see this earlier. First off, good for you for recognising what you enjoy/dislike in a role. Whilst HR is an internal role, you’ll still have a client group to serve - it’s a support function all about serving others 😅 That being said, it’s a very different kind of client. Entry level HR roles are usually Administrator/Coordinator roles that involve quite a bit of data processing, assisting with projects and reporting, and answering first-level queries (eg. Can I have a copy of my contract?). It’s very rewarding and in most businesses, you will get to work across a broad range of functions so you get exposure to IT/Finance/Marketing etc. From there it’s about absorbing all the information you can to get better at risk management, interpreting legislation, and understanding stakeholder engagement. Hope that helps! It’s probably a better I do a video on it as it’s such a big question 😅😊

Hi Andreea, sorry to hear you’re discouraged! I can’t speak for other countries, but in Australia the salary for HR professionals is actually quite competitive alongside marketing professionals and other support services. Unfortunately there is bias all over the place when it comes to recruitment, you can only hope that you apply to businesses that have good recruitment practises. My Personal opinion, working in HR can be emotionally exhausting and you really have to enjoy what you do. If you are chasing a salary, HR is still a good career, but if it’s your only priority, you might want to research high-paying jobs in your country and do something related to HR. For example, HR in the mining and technology industries pay very well.

In bigger companies you’ll get lots of opportunity for collaboration but in small businesses (say less than 200 employees) you’ll largely have to work autonomously.

To answer your question (I’m sure you’ve figured it out by now, but for anyone else reading): - Many HR professionals have a behavioural sciences background, and many psychologists have a HR background funnily enough. The work is so closely tied to human behaviour and theories of motivation that they are very complimentary and it’s easy to get an HR entry role from a psych degree. - HR ladders usually look like this, HR; admin, coordinator, advisor, officer, business partner/manager, Head of, Director/Chief of - the ladder above can be applied to any specialisation. For example, L&D Coordinator, OD Business Partner, Remuneration and Benefits Advisor Sorry again that this has come a year late - I hope you’ve done well in your studies and enjoying it!

Hi Racheal, thanks for stopping by. HR in healthcare comes with a lot of risk and reward. For example, the risk that HR is managing in certain industries such as healthcare, construction, law etc are of greater complication than industries that may not have such liability - Eg retail. Then again, the reward you receive for supporting healthcare professionals may be deeply satisfying as you’re “helping the people who help people.” Hope that makes sense!? For any HR person, I strongly recommend you value your own time and self care, as being there for others is emotionally taxing.

HR is an exceptionally strategic role, just because it’s a support function doesn’t mean it’s not important. Accounting, finance and marketing are also support functions - but they’re strategic in nature too. And yes absolutely - lots of HR practitioners go on to be CEO’s!

@annefloreskepu

Hi there - that sounds like a good plan of attack if you're interested in those subjects. You need a Bachelor of Business with an HRM focus or psychology degree (usually) to secure an HRM role. An HR Manager carries more and more risk, so the salary can be quite good, depending on your skill set. The average HR manager for a medium sized business can earn anywhere from $120-$150k AUD. This of course is a generalisation, and you should do your own research in your local area. That being said, HR is incredibly hard work. If you're in it for the money, this is probably not the right career path for you.

Great question! A lot of this is covered in the video. Most HR roles are Monday to Friday, with some evening or weekend work depending on the operational requirements of the business. I often take my work home but I am definitely able to enjoy life away from work. HR are really champions for work life balance and integration, so I’ve been fortunate in Australia that the HR departments I’ve worked in have encouraged a healthy relationship with work.

@@annefloreskepu thank you for your response can I also ask, alot of people say hr is not for the faint of heart, because you deal with alot as you mentioned personal problems of the employees like health and family death and etc. I come from a back ground of studying dental hygiene and I'm looking to change careers into hr because I've seen the career variety in HR and helping people and grow in their workplace and also hoping to experience personal growth as well. The current job I have now is way to repetitive, cleaning teeth in a hunch over position,( I don't mean to be negative )but on the other hand I've been getting excited listen to hr pros talk about the different roles and types of companies they work for and it seems so interesting and there's so much more to learn and do. So when they say it's not for the faint of heart how do I know if I'm someone that's able to deal with all this?

Good luck!

I actually didn’t know what major and so I went to a career counselor and HR Tech, HR Generalist appeared. I know there are different sections in HR, my question is does someone who work in HR do everything from recruiting to worker relation or is it just certain thing like you do one thing like recruiting and there’s another HR thy does compensation and stuff? Idk if HR is for me, I just went with it because of my career counselor results and also I’m about to graduate next year, and honestly even now I still don’t know if it’s right, I just don’t wanna drop everything and start 4 years again!
