How can I transition into a talent acquisition role from recruitment. I've been a recruitment lead for 5 years but I'm seeking change and higher pay. Do I need a TA certification?

A certification would certainly help. However, research the differences between the role. Yes, they sound similar but they are quite different. On your resume highlight the skills you have that would meet the TA qualifications. Hopefully this helps in your journey.

Your YOE is more than enough. You should focus more on building a solid professional network. Tailor your resume and highlight all the skills you have.

Moving from recruitment to talent acquisition is a great transition, and it's great that you have experience in recruitment already. Certification is not a requirement, but it can help to give you an edge over other candidates.

A certification is not required, but it may be beneficial to demonstrate your commitment to the field. Network with talent acquisition professionals in your area, attend industry events and take courses or webinars further to develop your skills and knowledge in talent acquisition.

You can transition into a talent acquisition role without a certification, but having one can certainly give you an advantage. Consider attending talent acquisition training, programs, industry events, and conferences to network and learn from other professionals.

Having a certification can be helpful, but it's not the only way to make the transition. Consider working with a recruiter or talent acquisition professional to gain more insight into the field and see if any transferable skills can help you transition.

You don't necessarily need a certification, but it may help set you apart from other candidates. Focus on building your network and gaining more experience in talent acquisition by volunteering or taking on additional responsibilities in your current role. When applying for talent acquisition roles, highlight how your recruitment experience translates to the talent acquisition field.

Not necessarily. But I'd say having one would be a great advantage on your part. If you have the time and resources, then I suggest you get a TA certification. Good luck!

I don't think you need a certification, I feel like the roles have a lot of overlapping skillsets so it should be an easier transition

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.

I have looked into getting SHRM certification. But should I go back to school and get my masters in Hr?
