Hello People, I am an HR with 3 years of experience and I am open to a Challenging HR role post 2.5 Years of Maternity & Nurturing Break and my Gap is costing me so much that it has started making me feel demotivated and anxious as I am not getting Interview calls. Can any Dubai Folks vouch for me for an HR Generalist or HR Manager role?

I reside in Dubai.

So sorry you're going through this! It's really unfair that a maternity break would cost you opportunities. Are you including the reason for this gap in your applications? You'd think HR teams would know better than to use that to make decisions about interviews.

Yes I have mentioned it on my resume as well as my Cover letter but still no luck.

I left my old job the end of January (due to compensation) and hate my new job. I don’t sleep and am constantly stressed. I have been interviewing since May, but I can’t seem to find a good fit that has an insurance Plan that fits my needs. I am thinking about reaching out to my old job (very small and tight knit) to see if there’s a position available for me still. They told me there would be when I left…what is the best way to go about this?

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

SPHR exam- has anyone ever been “randomly selected” for an application audit? This just happened to me and the sheer amount of effort that is going to go into collecting all the documents almost makes me not want to follow through. Since I didn’t finish undergrad, they’re asking for a copy of my high school diploma or transcript and that itself is going to be an absolute nightmare to get hold of. Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.
