Eddodoh:How do you get these volunteering jobs? |
Re: Human Resource Professionals: by LondonCool(m): 6:33pm On Oct 19, 2015 |
sisisioge: What kind of career path do you desire to pursue? Administrative roles are only stepping stones. The kind of Admin role you are looking for depends on the organisational hierarchy in place. You may be looking for Admin Officer, Admin Executive, Senior Admin Officer, Admin Manager job titles, but their level of seniority or job description may differ from place to place deoending on the degree of complexity required to carry out the role. Have you considered adding something extra to your Admin skills like Project Management, Systems Administration, Accounting, Customer Service skills, etc ? Get your CV reviewed by a friend or peer, or blindly send them to companies and once you get a refusal response contact them to find out what aspects of your CV they had issues with. |
Re: Human Resource Professionals: by LondonCool(m): 6:40pm On Oct 19, 2015 |
twaintoy: You need to apply to organisations that 1) have vacancies for voluntary roles 2) do not have such vacancies but indicate your willingness to add value to their HR processes by volunteering your skills on a pro bono basis. This could be your local church, library, private school, charity, private sector companies, etc. This way you are creating the vacancy for yourself through your resilience and persistence. 2 Likes |

LondonCool: Whew! Sounds indept...thanks. I was so interested in HR cos my first degree was related, I got CIPM and then majored in it with my MBA but haven't had the opportunity to work in HR capacity. The volunteer HR jobs aren't anywhere in the horizon for me now cos I need my time and money. I will take your advice and see what happens...thanks a ton. |

Hello House' Pls I need a Job as an HR Officer in IBADAN, Am a graduate of Public Administration(Bsc), I have a little work experience on human relation(NYSC). Am presently a student member of CIPM(PE2). I would like to have a work experience in the field of human Resources. Am reachable on this mail for timanjorin@yahoo.com. Thank you and God Bless U. |

sisisioge: My friend, you can volunteer on a weekend or once a month, it doesn't have to be on a 9-to-5 full time basis. Second,you may need to reinvent yourself, register a business name with the CAC and package yourself as an HR Consultant in the area of your expertise. That's how you break through in this rat race. With all your qualifications and experience what HR problems are you capable of solving? Use your business and let potential clients know what HR problems you can solve for them. For instance, can you provide vetted cleaning staff for organisations? Can you supply temporary Teachers to schools? Use your company/business to provide your HR experience for your next HR role. Read up and make sure you have the substance to back up your claimed HR experience. 1 Like |

wolestix: If I were you I'd write down a shortlist of all the public and private sector organisations in Ibadan and target them by sending them my CV. To be employed as an HR Officer you would be expected to have a couple of years of demonstrable HR working experience. I studied Public Admin for my first degree just like you and I registered with the CIPM as a Youth Corper just like you too ( in 1992), so you are on the right path. You just need to be focused and persevere with your HR goal. 1 Like |

twaintoy:Most of the volunteering position I got was through cold calling. I Google names of companies and HR firms within my locality. I get their email ID and contact number. I called them to inform them of my desire to volunteer in their HR department. Fortunately, I do get positive response from them. A C.E.O & Founder of a HR firm had to call me for a meeting & he said dat anytime his company has project, I will b contacted to work wit his team. If you see d way i package & restructure my CV & LinkedIn profile. You will think I have bin into HR for 20 yrs. I usually get profile views by top HR professionals & some of them do counsel me or recommend some training opportunity to me. 2 Likes |

Hi...am happy to be part of this wonderful cream of intelectuals. I just enroled in an Msc in Strategic HRM at the Pan African Institute For Development West Africa. I would be happy if you people assist me with any infos relevant to my field. My first semester courses are; 1. Advanced Human Resource Management Policies and Strategies. 2. Industrial psychology and Labour relations. 3. Labour Law and regulations in the Anglophone and Francophone Zones. 4. Leadership ad Organizational Behaviour. 5. Trainning and Development The rest of the courses are the schools compulsory course. Feel free to help me with any stuff on my email...Mbonibryan@gmail.com |
Re: Human Resource Professionals: by LondonCool(m): 10:48am On Oct 20, 2015 |
Donbryan: Donbryan, It's good to know that you are about to embark on your Msc degree in Strategic HRM. My concern is about the pedigree of the school where you are getting your qualifications from. Which University is accreditating your degree? What is the quality of the academic staff in the HR department? How many Professors, Readers, Senior Lecturers, Lecturers, Research Associates/Fellows are there? Your course modules need to reflect the body of knowledge required to constitute a Strategic HRM masters degree. I would have added more global content or curricula, although it does reflect the areas of study for PAID-WA. If you are given lots of reputable African companies as case-studies to diagnose in the area of change management, organisation design/culture, global leadership, strategic corporate planning, etc, as part of your learning you would be able to sharpen your strategic acumen. As a starting point, if I wake you up from sleep and ask you 'What is Strategy?', you should be able to tell me the answer. ( If you are in doubt Google the article 'What is Strategy' by Prof Michael Porter) Your access to recent HR journals, research work and text books is very crucial. HR is a fast changing subject and any secondary research material more than 5 years can be deemed as obsolete in many traditional University settings. I work as an HR Consultant for a UK University so I deal with a lot of degree validation issues when it comes to recruitment. Where and what you study is very important. Normally, I should be able to go to Google and access the details of your school, department, research activity before offering you a job. 2 Likes |

belzieee: 1) Keep your eyes and ears wide open for HR or management trainee or even HR Officer roles. 2) Cold call companies for volunteering 3) Cold call for internship 4) Join your local PPCA and network there, esp with senior members. You could be active and impress there 5) Well, the brick and mortar approach: apply, apply, apply |
Re: Human Resource Professionals: by blanquecheque: 12:45am On Oct 23, 2015 |
teetee2: Shuo! What next? I guess you went for the programme for a purpose. And would that not be to simply go for opportunities in HR? And if you mean continuing professional development, CIPM got you covered. Continue attending as many MCPE's as you can as well as other L& courses around you. Good luck! |
Re: Human Resource Professionals: by blanquecheque: 12:57am On Oct 23, 2015 |
teetee2: More knowledge? Attend CIPM's MCPE's. You can also look around you for L& courses now; many consulting firms around. |
