Am I the only HR graduate going through this right now:

I honestly can’t believe how difficult it is to enter the Human Resources field in Dublin, Ireland, with a bachelors and masters degree, yet no opportunities in Dublin.

Companies are not willing to work (nor train) with new HR graduates, and expect you to have 5 to 10 years of experience and have all the certificates in the whole wide world! (ridiculous) .

Frustrated is an understatement. 💔 but I’ll stay hopeful. 🤞🏽

Hi fishies! Considering an internal big 4 move from Western Europe to Dubai. Not sure about WLB and whether there’ll be enough growth and learning opportunities after reading some of the threads here. Anyone up for sharing their experience? Especially concerned about sexism / racism as a WOC…and whether moving back to Europe in a few years will be difficult because the ME experience won’t be considered valuable.

Has anyone made the transition from non-profit and small firm practice to federal government, big law, in-house?

However, I’m just exhausted, unmotivated, and and looking for a change. At this point (6.5 yrs of practice), is that type of transition even possible or am I stuck due to the practice area?

Here is an insight for you all today—key elements to living life with purpose.

Finding purpose in your life changes the way you think, behave, and communicate with others. You lose track of time because you are too busy enjoying what you have at the moment.

To find purpose in your life requires three key elements:

1) Presence
2) Values
3) Challenges

Without these three elements, you can never feel fulfilled and live life with a purpose.
