I am sorry this response is coming rather late. When you are answering such question, be reasonable. Look at the industry. Do not over-price and also not under-price yourself. Most organizations have salary structure but people's expectations are also use as a benchmark for remunerations.

Please as H.R experts, what do you do with pre-employment medicals? Do you disqulify candidates based on it? What are the basic things you look out for? What illness would disqualify one. Thank you.

@Dr. Wise,
With my experience while administering pre-medicals. There are some with diseases or infections and they are suitable for the job but for the medical reports. Such candidates, I will be willing to bring them on board next time in as much they been able to come clean.
In addition, depending on the kind of job you are offering. If for example you have a candidate with chest problem because definitely, test will be administered on chest you might not want to bring in such candidates to do hard jobs or factory environments.
The calibre of people we should not reject are those with HIV because the test demand HIV report. I had a case sometime when a prospective candidate was found to be infected by the disease. We had to tell him but he was still offered the job because really he was the best candidate for Management Trainee program we did at that time. He rejected the offer. He could not manage both the job and the current HIV status staying on with the company. It was a pathetic situation.

Good day all. Trust that the year is going great. I have silently followed this thread with much interest for a couple of years now - since 2008. I must confess it (this thread) was one of the factors that solidified my interest in building a career in HR. God bless all the contributors. You are helping so many of us out in more ways than you know it. Your efforts are so appreciated

I would like an opportunity in a structured HR department of an orgabisation. I am currently an Admin Executive with over 3years experience. I'm currently studying for my Cipmn exams (PE1). I really would love to "practise what I preach" ie core HR. I would not mind a trainee/internship position as this will greatly help my career projection. My email is olamideayoola@gmail.com. Constructive advices would be much welcome. Thank you all so much

Ok. If you can study on your own, go get your study packs @ CIPM office with past questions. A lot of people pass CIPM exams without attending lectures. It however depend on your ability to study on your own though. All the best.
