Could someone suggest what is the best way to move to a rewards/C&B profile? I started off with an HR generalist profile, and in 2015, I got to know about this course - Certified Rewards Professional from Aon Hewitt and took the course. But so far, I haven't got any opportunity since my background was HR generalist, and after that, I got an opportunity in learning and development.
The course content (Aon - CRP) was great, but it was fast-paced, and I applied to many jobs in rewards at Aon itself many times but never got a response. They charge a bomb for it, and honestly, I don't think the program delivers. Nor did I get my money's worth. It is at best good for those who are already into the rewards and C&B and are looking for growth.
I would really appreciate suggestions on the same. I have already networked with some people with rewards profiles on LinkedIn, but they just add you as their connection and don't help afterward. So networking hasn't been useful so far.
Thanks and Regards,
