Hello all,
I am an HR professional with 3.8 years of experience. I have completed a full-time PGDM. I have 2.5 years of experience in recruitment and the rest of my experience in background verification. Now, I want to switch into an HR generalist role. The problem is that none of the companies are giving opportunities to a fresher. I want to know if there is any course or certification that could be helpful in getting an HR generalist role.
Please suggest if anyone has any views on this.
