Any HR professionals in here?

[MikelArteta]

It's competitive mainly because most hr departments are small. I work at a hospital in Toronto and the HR department is like ten people.

And once ppl get in they don't leave, it's a great field because even if. A place goes bankrupt the last department to go is he

I'm currently taking a post-grad HR program at a local college in toronto (Seneca).

Any advice on the profession and means of gaining an advantage over other graduates is greatly appreciated.

You either gotta go thru the generalist route and move laterally or start career w a comp consulting firm. Only ways I've seen it done.

I haven't seen an entry level comp job in forever, software replaced that role years ago
