What I don't understand is why HR is considered a good career path. What do HR people actually do all day? For a HR person with, say, 15 years of experience, does it actually take only 1 to learn?

I find it hilarious how HR people are so full of themselves just because they are responsible for recruitment. Once people are actually hired, people have pretty poor impressions of HR. The HR people I've met seem to have to over-compensate for a diminished sense of self-importance and constantly justify why HR is such a difficult job.

I'm not denying that HR, like other departments, have a role to fulfil, but surely it's not that hard. So what do HR people do, that can't otherwise be taught/learned relatively quickly?
