"If you had asked me ten years ago if I wanted to work in HR, I probably would have said 'no thank you.' I didn't know much about Human Resources. About seven years ago, I was paired up with a couple of Human Resources team members for an inter-departmental company project. I learned a lot about their jobs as we worked together over a few weeks and was intrigued with the variety in their days and the passion they had for helping our company's employees. When a position opened up in the HR department a couple of months later, I applied for it and got the job. I've been in love with HR since my first day in the position, and I've never looked back!"

Focus on what you love about your job. Whether you've always known you wanted to work in HR or took a wandering path that unexpectedly led to Human Resources, your excitement about the industry should come through.
