Hi all, I currently work for a mid-size non profit after graduating from university last May. My main role is recruiting, but I really would like to move to the ER side. My degree is not in HR, so I was going to stay at this role for a year to start working on my SHRM. Does anybody have any tips on moving into more ER related roles from recruiting? Thank you!

It depends on the company, but I started just showing up to other meetings where ER would be discussed, reaching out to those leaders and asking if they needed help. Eventually I was crosstrained into so many roles that now I am very marketable. Also, working at a non profit will forgive a lot of your college loans, so potentially don't leave that company if you don't have to, because that's a big advantage if your loans were as much as mine

Does ER = executive recruitment?

Looking for advice! I was approved to work remotely but my salary will decrease 10%. I received two raises so the decrease brings me down to my previous salary. I was told that it’s due to the cost of labor in the area.

I’ve been with my company for 8+ yrs, I love my manager and the work I do (engagement, recognition, & wellness programs) but I feel like I’m limiting myself since I have the experience, an HRM degree, and SHRM-CP credentials.

Should I apply for roles outside the company?
