Hi, I am a student in private uni bcs management program. From what I have read it seems to be really unlikely for a private grad to secure a job with good prospect in specialized field. So here are my questions:
If I am keen on taking up internship, what kind of companies are possible for candidates like me?
If getting into specialised hr field is unlikely, I would be more interested in doing recruitment than to do a generalist work. Anyone care to share the path of a recruiter?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Recruiters esp agencies are more sales than HR. You do not need to waste time on internship as they are the most open of all HR like sales and readily accept most people of any qualification or w/o exp. Whether you survive or not is another matter though.

If you want real HR specialization like TM/C&B/HRIS/BP/CD/OE/L&D etc, it is not likely that anyone will accept a pte deg w/o exp. You are better off doing internships in general admin/HR ops based jobs & build your career from there then waste time on it.

Is Salary Justifiable?
 

Hi, i'm 22 and earning 3.3k as a HR generalist with local SME.
Had total of 3 years of experience in this trait and
also graduating in part time private degree in HRM soon.

is the pay justifiable?

yes, most HR with more exp get less pay than you do

It sounds ok and keep at it. I am mid-30s and doing HR in bank Paribus. I started off with recruitment agency. It is possible to hit mid-100k in 30s and should have more topside.

Do you mean 100k p.a in mid 30s! how should i follow your steps. haha
What should i be expecting for my next jump?

isn't that like 8k per month, then include salary? would be just average if you take into account age and number of years of working experience

100k for mid 30s isn't really that fantastic tbh.

more uni grads would hit that number eventually. heck i know of some fresh grads that already hit that number. but those are the exception rather than the norm.

Hello there, i am a uni fresh grad currently looking for a job. I was recommended a job as a recruitment consultant. Since you have worked in an agency before, do you mind sharing with me the pros and cons of being a consultant? And also about career progression. Thanks in advance!
