Hello,

I am currently a student at a University of London and am interested to learn more about the HR career from HR proffesionals. I do understand that HR has a lot of roles from recruitment to law etc.
However I would like to list the following things about me that I would like in a typical HR job (please bear in mind that I am still in the process of my research as HR is appealing to me at the moment)

1.) I am not the type of person to sit at a computer all day and do repetitive things I like challenges day in and out.
2.) I enjoy working as a team and being the leader.
3.) I hate routine and like to try something new every day of a job.
4.) I enjoy presentations and organising events.
5.) I love travelling
6.) Obviously excellent pay

the above things are what I am like or give a brief insight as to what I enjoy doing furthur on now I want to know the following things about HR...

1.) Obviously Human Resources is quite a varied and there are lots of roles that are involved can you tell me what type of HR role will be suitable for me according to what I have listed above ?

2.) If there is such a role that involves my type of interest in the HR industry what can I do to make my self stand out for future employers and how can I go abouts volunteering specifically for HR?

3.) I am a first year I should be applying for internships as soon as sept and want to gain as much experience and make myself stand out from the rest to actually apply for suitable positions for me in the area.

I was told from another forum that HR Consultancy is what I should look into but I dont know how to begin and I didnt get a lot of responses, I really need advice and really need to know whether this area would interest me immensily.


Thankyou for your help in advance

p.s I know I have to do a CIPD type of qualification do companies support that for those in HR roles and wanting to persue it as a career?
Thankyou Smile
