(I Already finished my AA in Business)After my internship, I began working as an HR assistant(40 hrs a week + college) for a different company. Offering my assistance wherever I could and doing the job efficiently. As I got closer to graduation, I worked my way to HR Specialist. I think the more education, experience and determination you have the faster you will move you through the HR field.
