-: One recommendation is just get your foot in the door.
Get yourself established in some sort of a position
in a company and as long as you have the skills
and you know, advance yourself as best you can,
with taking courses in human resources,
or there's a lot of certificate programs out there.
But there's not a lot of HR positions
and when there is one, there's a lot of applicants.
So I find that being in the right place
at the right time is usually how it happens.
So you want your resume to be clear and easy to read.
Have clear dates, start and end dates,
because we're looking at if a person has enough experience.
So if we're looking for two years of experience,
we need that stated on the resume,
so that I can see clearly if that person,
indeed has two years or is it really only one year.
Look at he job posting and make sure
you customize your resume to fit the job posting.
So if they're looking for Microsoft Excel skills,
make sure you bring to light in your resume,
how you've done that in your past job duties.
And make sure it appears on your resume.
If you can't get it into your resume,
put it in your cover letter so at least it's somewhere.
