Just had a very uncomfortable conversation with a partner. I have some time off booked to go to my brother’s wedding (I’m the best man). We were chatting and I mentioned that my brother’s future husband is so nice and really a great guy, and we already consider him a member of our family. Partner’s tone immediately shifts and as we’re ending the call he says, “Okay, enjoy the time with your family at the civil ceremony.” Like… girl you live in California, you cannot be this backward.

JPMC fishes, have a worrying thought, have you heard cases of offer being revoked or any slowdown you see in hiring ? With the current market conditions it is worrying to have just 1 offer in hand. Any insights on this would be helpful.

PHR or SHRM-CP?

In your honest opinion, do you think your HR certification was worth it? I personally think certifications are a scam. 😅

I rarely have been asked about my certs in interviews and I never ask about certs when I'm interviewing.

The previous company I worked for offer me a regional recruitment manager roll at 85K - yet a recruitment manager with the same company is making 130K

Attending the IPMI HR Management Institute conference today and over the next few days. If you are too, I hope to see you there!

For those of you who spent the time and money to get the PHR or SHRM certifications, do you feel that it actually strengthened your professional capabilities as on HR professional, or did you just do it to fit into the “HR Professional” crowd?

What's your opinion on making friends with non-HR coworkers? I don't like the thought that someday I might have to write up a friend for disciplinary action or tell them they're fired.

Best job to get to transition into HR?

Does anyone know where to start in HR please?

My background is 12+ years in customer/client experience, coaching, sales, and account management. I’m finishing a Lv7 executive coaching course and starting a CIPD Lv5 people management course.

Any ideas on what roles I can start with? Don’t care if it’s a simple role, getting in with a good company is important.

Hi all. I started a new role with a company I’ve been with for 2 years. The role is very much an SME role and can be quite boring sometimes. When hired I was told that this role would do a lot of different projects and skys the limit but after 7 months, I’ve been doing 1 project and when asking about role expansion essentially told to stay in my lane. My first thought was performance issues but manager confirmed not that. It’s getting really boring and need more engagement. What should I do?

Is there anyone that can talk me through examples of Bonus Structures for HR professionals?

Thanks🌻

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology. They suggested that we put SPHR ( Lapsed). I let it lapse in 2017. What is your opinion? Plus if I were to take another certification - should I take SPHR or SHRM-SCP?

Hi fishes, is anyone hiring for an HR Project/Program Manager/Specialist? I have 2.6 YOE as an HR PM in an IT company. Looking for a change. In India or any remote opportunity outside of India(work anywhere type). Please help.

Recently, our client has decided to retract their job offer to a newly hired candidate who is currently rendering his notice period and is already on his last day with his current employer. This is because they have changes internally that have affected the new hiring. I really feel frustrated, guilty, and awful for the candidate. We are already down to the final steps of the onboarding process and should have been his first day next week. (Cont.)
