Any advice for someone looking to transition into a full HR Generalist role from Recruiting. I’m currently a Campus Recruiter with about 5 years of HR experience (Coordinator- Higher Ed). I received my PHR certification in September 2020 and sitting for my SHRM-CP in two weeks. I’m having a hard time transitioning into a full Generalist position.
Would you be able to shadow a generalist at your company? I have a recruiter who also wants to transition to generalist and when she shared that with me I made it a point to include her in some of my projects. Just so she can get some experience and her feet wet. It seems to have worked as management is creating a role for her outside of recruitment now because she did such a phenomenal job.
Wow that a great advice am also looking out for a generalist role .
I would look for a generalist role at a company where the generalist also does recruiting. That can help get you on the generalist path by leveraging a skill you already have.
Amazon is a good place to start
