What careers are available after a Bachelor's degree in HR?

A Bachelor's degree in Human Resources is a professional qualification that will enable you to enter the job market directly. There are several jobs open to young graduates:

  • Recruitment officer, responsible for finding and selecting candidates;
  • Payroll manager, responsible for drawing up pay slips and managing personnel administration;
  • Training Manager, who designs and implements skills development programmes;
  • HR Development Officer, who supports employees' professional development;
  • Human Resources Assistant, who handles personnel administration.

With a few years' experience, you can progress to HR manager, HR consultant or even, eventually, HR director. The field also offers opportunities in different business sectors and types of organisation: private companies, the public sector, consultancies and recruitment agencies.

How do you choose between continuing your studies and entering the world of work?

This decision depends on a number of factors that need to be analysed:

  • Your long-term career plans: some positions of responsibility require a 5-year degree;
  • Your current skills and those you wish to develop;
  • Your personal and financial situation, which may influence your choice of sandwich course or immediate entry into working life;
  • Job market opportunities in the human resources sector.

Work-linked training represents an excellent compromise, enabling you to continue your training while gaining valuable professional experience and earning a salary. This option is particularly popular with recruiters in the human resources sector, where on-the-job experience is highly valued.
