Transition to a Career in HR Management?

Monday June 29, 2009

I’ve promised an article about how to transition into the field of Human Resource Management for a long time. In fact, questions about how to get into HR are among the most frequently asked questions from site visitors.

It dawned on me that I have some ideas about how to transition to an HR career – because I made the transition myself – but, my readers and site visitors have many more ideas and stories to tell from their own experience.

So, I asked the question at LinkedIn Answers awhile back and was gratified at the number of thoughtful responses I received. I’ve shared my thoughts and these many reader stories about their career transitions in: Transition to a Career in Human Resource Management.

I also created a format so you can share your story about how you transitioned into the field of HR Management. As time goes by, I’ll add additional themes I find in reader answers to the original article. Please do share your story.
