    I’ll keep it simple. I quit my HR role because it’s an over glorified baby sitting job. After 7 years I couldn’t do it anymore. You have to enforce policy, but you can only enforce it to certain people. Do not allow truancy and insubordinate behavior, but again this doesn’t apply to everyone. I literally had an employee obsessed with me, and she convinced upper management to approve putting her desk right in front of my office so that I can look at her. That was her literal request! CREEPY AF! She went as far as request that I try and initiate a personal relationship with her, even threw multiple public tantrums because I would refuse to do, and they took her side! I’m thought I was living in the twilight zone! I need the paycheck, but that creepy behavior is not worth the money!

    Hi! I’m glad I came across your video. I thought I was the only one going through this. I was considering going into Human Resource after college, but I changed my mind. I started off as a recruiter at a recruiting agency. Although I loved helping and coaching candidates. I disliked the work culture and realized it wasn’t for me. I can sympathize with you when you mentioned about gossiping/rumors in the work place. That really bothered me. I was often picked on about not entertaining the office gossip. I like keeping topics about “work” at work… I believe personality types are important too. If a person is an empath, like myself, HR is not the field to go into. Great video!

    I work in HR and don't feel its my industry. I've been struggling of when to quit because I am closing on my first home here on Monday (yay!). I love Marketing and I've been doing what I can to get certifications since I don't have direct experience. But I've been able to work with lots of brands on paid SM campaigns, that decided I want to launch my own online business to teach SM to businesses and service providers. What's held me back is the PAYCHECK. I don't know if its stupid to quit before getting enough client to replace my income. But the environment at my place is just SO SO bad. I've never cried so much before. I have funds to keep me afloat that God for awhile. I guess I also fear that if it doesn't work out its going to be hard and take long time for me to get a job again. Any feedback or advice from another HR person would be amazing :) thanks!

      I will say I haven't really thought about getting a PHR certification as I don't think HR is really what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have a Master's in Int'l MGMT with Project MGMT so idk maybe another thing I need to have in my toolkit.

      Congrats with your new home! So cool! It depends on how many months can you budget to be without your regular job. I would def try to turn a hobby into full time income. In case you are tight on the budget, then I would look for a better job, best would be a remote work, to focus on your passion. Because working remotely let's you work on both projects, just telling you in secret. 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫 If the environment is toxic, you's better change it for sure.

    • @InsideCorporatePlaybook
      @InsideCorporatePlaybook  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hr is not a regulated profession, meaning, you can work without certifications. If you think you don't see yourself in this field, just screw these HR certifications 😃😃 but if marketing certs will help you start and open the door, focus on these marketing certs instead.

    Maybe you were not the right fit for that job. As HR, you are expected to know the policies and procedures of the company. Problem starts because many get into HR assuming HR is easy and relaxed job. All other departments and roles require people to know their subject. However, not all HR members spend time and effort in becoming the Subject Matter Expert of their role.

    Great video! I have been doing HR for 8 years. I knew early on it wasn’t for me but pursing a mortgage, family, and other expensive life goals I feel trapped. I currently have a good plan to establish financial independence but it will take time. Do you have any advice how how to change careers without taking a major pay cut or going back to school? HR has many transferable skills but I am struggling on how to make this work. I may have another 2-3 HR years left in me before I go insane lol

      Hi Kevin, Thank you for checking out my video.
      As for changing careers with no loss of money, I would examine whether a new profession is a good fit both professionally and financially, as well as study job prospects - to avoid the risk of automation.

    • @InsideCorporatePlaybook
      @InsideCorporatePlaybook  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Then, look at the knowledge gap you have with the target roles and try to close it as much as possible. Then, as an option, consider part-time jobs, most likely entry-level positions, or network to get a good full-time job. But, most importantly, if you don't want to waste your time growing your income level, have a career strategy in place.
      Job hopping is a great way to grow quickly every 18-24 months. Internal transfers work well as well and are less risky if you realize this is not your field and if you can try to get your previous position back.
      I got some useful videos about job-hopping (th-cam.com/video/rtBfm_TFKwQ/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ManshukKerey) and the benefits of working part-time (th-cam.com/video/bfOTLvwCqn8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ManshukKerey). And then, this may help too, getting a job fast thru Linkedin: th-cam.com/video/LRNlf8rW3bs/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ManshukKerey
      Hope it helps.

    Hello I am currently starting my path into HR as an assistant and I am fairly confident in learning all I can about this field. However, regarding labor laws and compliance how could I prepare for this topic? I realize one should not memorize everything as laws change, and I was advised to think critically not simply memorizing laws. Do you have any tips for a new hr assistant to better prepare for this? Thank you for all these videos they are very helpful.

    • @InsideCorporatePlaybook
      @InsideCorporatePlaybook  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey, the best way to learn something is to expose yourself to more work, but in order not to waste the time on crappy little things that pile up very quickly in HR deps, stay closer to that HR person who is dealing with the issues of particular interest to you and try to help more and get visible. You don't need to learn legislation in detail, company HR policy may have included them already. HR Business Partner deals with laws, if they don't deal with utmost confidential info, you can show enthusiasm and offer your assistance.
      If you are an entry-level professional, I would recommend looking for HR associates programs. It's kind of a fast-track program that exists in companies where they have a 2-year program specially designed program for young career professionals. I know Pepsi, tobacco companies, P&G run them, f. ex.
