Have any of you transitioned into an HR role? What would you say are the transferable skills you leveraged the most? I'm considering the shift but have apprehensions that I'm not going to be able to handle all that it takes to be in Hr. On the other hand, I feel super confident that I will love what HR, at least the idea of it that I have, entails. Would love to hear firsthand experience from someone who has made this shift.

I considered making the move and even had a solid job offer. For me, it helped having a degree in Business Management. I also did some HR duties at the time including payroll, benefits sign ups, and employee onboarding/off boarding. Ultimately, the pay wasn't where I was at because I would have been more entry level, which is fine and to be expected, but I liked money a lot more than the idea of starting over at a low wage.

Try and get an entry-level HR certification like the aPHR. That will validate some foundational knowledge you'll need about employment law, recruitment, and compensation.. which I assume aren't exactly thing you deal with in your current job. I've been in HR a long time ago, and did the opposite kind of shift. But that's what I think you could do.

Hello Folks,
Can you pls advise on which company to go for.
R-Systems : They are providing WFH + clarity on the project and team for which I’ll be working upon.
CTS : No clarity as of now, only thing I am aware is that I’m a part of full stack community.
HCL : Some clarity on the project but less package than other two.
R-Systems and CTS are giving same CTC.
YOE ~8
Skill set : . Net full stack + Angular + Azure

Negotiating a settlement. I’m at $10k, opposing counsel is at $20k. My client won’t go higher than $15k. OC has come down to 17.5k and says his client won’t budge from that. Do I offer 12.5k so we can hopefully meet in the middle at 15k? Is that how the settlement game is played? Seems dumb we can’t just say let’s meet in the middle now and be done with this. (I’m a first year, first time negotiating a settlement on my own and I don’t want to screw this up!)

I manage a junior developer that's been with the company for about 18 months. I end up providing them of TON of support. I need to give them extremely detailed instructions or they fail.

I've tried asking them to do more on their own, but when I do, they fail spectacularly.
