Timeka! You have never lied! I follow and watch your videos and did everything you shared and what do you know... I got into HR with Washington State Department of Enterprise Services as a Talent Acquisition Consultant and I'm learning EVERYTHING - especially being paired up with my Business Partner! So glad I listened and watched your videos as I retired from my technology career and went for what I really wanted to do and that is hiring qualified candidates who have done their time to earn the job they deserve! So keep pumping out the videos!
Chile!!! You trying to make me cry!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰Thank you so much for the follow up! I’m a realist that truly enjoys seeing folks win!! Congrats!!! Please feel free to reach out to me if you need to or want to! 💜💜💜
Tamika Thank you! I have an opportunity to move into an HR Generalist position for a large company. I was so excited about the opportunity and now I’ve got an interview today. My history is in recruiting I worked for a large staffing firm for 5 years, internally and as an outside sales rep. I later took a position as an HR Assistant. I loved this position, it was demanding and constantly evolving. I started out handling work comp claims, FMLA, staff travel Arrangements, filing, EOV’s and as I gained experience I took on preliminary employee complaints and directed as needed. I really thought I would continue my career in HR. Life changed, I got married had 2 kids and wanted to be home more with them and avoid day care costs and have this precious time with them. When my kids reached school age I started volunteering at the school and career shifted into working for the school district. Long story short that field is always about who you know. So HR positions were never available. I’ve spent the last 16 years in the school district, my HR experience at this point feels relic. All of this to say I came across your video to try and get an idea of what I’m getting myself into. I believe in integrated and honesty and I do not want to sell my self into a position that is outside of my experience. I have wonderful friends that are cheering me on with the you can do this, you can learn as you go. Nope, after watching your UA-cam video I am confident this position is above the level of experience I have. You’re incredible, thank you for your detailed video explaining the day in the life of an HR Generalist. My children are 16 and 17 now and I’m ready to return to the HR field. I’m going to continue my search as an HR Assistant, get my head in the game and move up from there. You made a huge difference in my life today. Thank you again. 😘
Awesome!!!! I created this video to give clarity & I’m screening happy you got it! Many times folks will take HR Director HR Manager jobs titles, when they’re actually functioning as an HR Generalist. This sets them up for failure on their next job. Since you’ve already been an HR Asst & you want to return to HR, then maybe being an HR Coordinator or HR Specialist could be your next step. Here’s the link to a video I did about it: ua-cam.com/video/2ehae89N-9o/v-deo.html
This video is incredibly helpful. I’m pivoting into HR/Recruiting from a 12 year career as a Police Dispatcher with sales experience. There are so many parallels between Emergency services and HR. I’m finding the transition very smooth yet challenging in a rewarding way, as I’m researching to find a good fit as I enter a new chapter.
I empathize with your losses; it’s never easy. I can sense your strength. I have an interview tomorrow and wanted to share my journey. I began as a recruitment consultant, then moved to assistant manager in payroll and employee relations, and now I’m an HR manager with over eight years of experience. I’ve found the North American (especially Canadian) market to be the toughest to navigate. It took many interviews to finally land a role in HR. While the core principles of HR remain the same, the compliance aspects vary significantly across countries. I’ve noticed a stark contrast between the perspectives in Asia and North America-what we celebrate may be seen as standard there because it’s part of the job. I believe both intrinsic and extrinsic rewards are crucial for employee engagement and retention. However, I feel that the North American market may not fully appreciate this yet. I’ve also had to adjust my language in interviews, avoiding words like “convince,” “persuade,” and “reduction” to steer clear of negative connotations. As noticed that you’ve to sound like a bot to stay as neutral in language as possible. It’s taken away the human element because every word is picked and sensed differently.
This is so helpful queen. I am excited to start my HR Generalist role next month. I have started as a Talent Acquisition Coordinator and got promoted to Employee Benefits, and I am hoping this background will help me with this new role. Thank you for this amazing sharing, I will surely take note of these amazing tips.
That's so great. Can you help to know how did you transition to the Employee Benefits role from a Talent Coordinator role? Would Be great help as I am struggling to move to a new HR function from my current role which is Talent Coordinator
Would be great advice Timeka, if you can give an idea as to how to learn a new Core HR function like Benefits or Rewards or Performance mgmt without any experience
Yes, right on point! People who jump right into an HR Manager role without experience are not prepared! I’ve seen it happen time and time again where someone not prepared is promoted and they struggle hard because they don’t know the full process and lack people management and time management skills.
HR is sooo hard to get into. I have HR experience but…… my experience was while serving in the U.S. Army. Two totally different wolds. I am in the process of of getting my PHR but wow it is hard. Thanks for the info!!!
Great video Queen, I just finally landed a Jr. Recruiter role after having a 3 month stint as a recruiter at a staffing agency. I hope to move into a HR Generalist role after this and later become a HR manager. Thank you for the great information, you just earned another subscriber. Also, I offer my condolences to your losses 🙏🏾 may God be with you.
Wow.. this quite literally sounds like my job as a Project Assistant minus the laws and unsettling employee life instances. I am definitely equipped for the constant reprioritizing, wearing different hats, shifting focus, etc. Let’s see where I end up! 🙌🏽
Awesome breakdown! Thank you so much. I joined HRPOC, thanks for telling me about it. I’m currently in the interviewing process for an HR Generalist and an HR Asst both are for nonprofit organizations. For some places I qualify for Generalist and other places Coordinator. Terribly sorry to hear about your losses, my condolences. 🙏🏾
So glad you enjoyed it! I felt like it was jammed with info, so I was hoping it was not overwhelming. Awesome! I love HRPOC! CONGRATS on the interviews!! It's weird, but organizations are so different in their structure that it makes it difficult to decipher which is the best position to fill. Thank you. As time goes on, my heart heals a little more but at least I have several angels watching over me.
Ty for clearly going over the day in the life of an HR Generalist. I have a background in recruiting with little Generalist experience and a Master's in HRM. Seems difficult to land another Generalist role (currently unemployed). I've only been doing contract positions.last couple of years and it's been tough. Maybe it's because I'm a dude and I'm the odd one out idk. Your video goes quite in depth and is very much helpful. Thank you!

Ive been able to get into HR because of recruitment so I totally agree! And Im learning so much about HR and think ive decided I wanna focus on the employer branding aspect, HR is just so broad. I need to be less hard on myself I try and respond to everyone within the same day but its almost impossible will also stary the 48hr thing. And YES HR REQUIRES YOU TO MANAGE YOUR TIME AND YOURSELF 😭🙉
I think we're all hard on ourselves because it can seem overwhelming. For me, that's why the organization's culture became so important. When I think of the employer branding aspect, I think of marketing. Is that what you have in mind?
@@HeyyyHR marketing but on HR side. So Marketing dept focuses on promoting the company products whereas employer branding focuses on promoting the conpany as a great place to work
Your content is priceless. I've been an HRG for years, but I still found gems in this episode. I just started a new job as HRG dept of one, and this is a needed refresher.
I have been an HR Generalist for the past year and two months and I thought my experience was unique...just realizing that all that I do and the expecting the unexpected and constantly handling multiple issues was really a typical day for a HRG. Thanks for the insight and all the information. It is well received and greatly appreciated 😊
Hey girl Hey, I start my new role as a HR Coordinator today( literally in a few hours😂). I’m transitioning from a HR specialist in the Army. I want to progress to a Generalist and your video is motivating. I’m definitely subscribing 🤍
Hi Timeka! Just an idea, would you be willing to make a video on how to manage employee relations and dealing with complex investigations or terminations?
Thank you for touching on the part of managing yourself personally, and the part about employee bringing personal issues to you. I definitely needed to hear that.
You’re so welcome! Here’s a video I did on a day in the life as a Talent Acquisition Specialist. You’ll find it super useful ua-cam.com/video/787D40wJ7zA/v-deo.htmlsi=pLZERf1X9KAXdTD8
This was such a phenomenal video! I am linking it to my channel because you gave the full on scope of what the responsibilities of an HR Generalist is! Also thank you for speaking on recruiting bc I've had my few tiffs with some and the critical thinking and knowledge is not there sometimes!
I start a ADP HR Generalist role with my company in January. I am currently a Admin Assistant but I have a human resources management degree so that is how I got in. I only been in my current job/position for less than 6 months. My background is over 14 years of sales. I applied for HRM first with my position and was interviewed but was definitely advised to do the program first.
Thank you for this video. I am looking into becoming a hr generalist. I am pursuing to get my aphr certification and hope to receive this position when I get it. Thanks again.
Excellent overview- this is extremely helpful for private sector HR roles. Government is different. Government HR is broken down into various HR components.
Happy you found it helpful! Been there too & government as well as organizations with thousands of employees all break it down to specialties. I really enjoyed getting all of HR instead of parts of it.
Hi Timeka, amazing video and very informative. Being in the customer care dept gives me the drive to move further into HR. thank you for the video and will surely build on the point given.
Awesome! I'm so happy to hear that and I look forward to hearing updates on your journey. You may find this video helpful too. It compares the HR Generalist role to the HRBP role. ua-cam.com/video/B2efkPliQgM/v-deo.html
I’m past my 20’s and am finally getting my degree in HR in December. Really looking to climb the ladder since I’m really behind where I should be. What advice would you have to get a generalist position directly out of school?
Hi Tamika. I would be interested in a discussion about older workers attempting to enter Human Resources as a second career. Hiring or should I say a lack of and why.
You are a bless , because you taught me a lot throughout my interview preparations, Your vocab are precious too and very impressive and I'm consistently learning from you.Thank you for sharing and passing information
Hi thank you for sharing! It's good to know. They are realistic and practice useful info! I have a Bachelor's in Law and more than 12 years working experience working in Immigration for consulting company in Malaysia. Recently someone reached out to me for a HR Generalist role in US ..
Hey dear... I just discover your channel. I'm a HR Generalist but I feel I need more training to enable me function well and I will love you to be my mentor 🙏😭
I’m happy you found my channel bc I’m launching mentoring options before the end of this month. Join my email list because I will be giving updates there & allowing those on my email list to choose mentoring options first.
Hi Timeka, I am a new subscriber. I have recently transitioned to HR so I have really been benefitting from your content. I am in 🇨🇦 . Could you do a video on navigating different HRIS systems?
Awesome video! I’m nervous about transitioning into my new role though I’ve been in HR for a few years now. I just accepted a pilot position as an HR Generalist for a major company. This position is completely different than my last few positions. As an HR specialist in a factory, I was responsible for all terms, corrective actions, investigations, orientations, onboarding, and training documents. As for my second HR position, I was responsible for compliance related items, retention records, onboarding, orientations, and hiring. For my new position, I’m a traveling HR generalist that will be working alongside the Regional Operations Team. I’m a bit nervous as my responsibilities are different and I need to be more confident in this role since I am working with higher members of management. 😩 How can I build the necessary professional relationships with my Market and Regional Management team in order to get the necessary feedback I need to do my job? I’m nervous as this position is more focused on building relationships and establishing trust with my peers. Thanks!!
Congrats Patti!!! That’s actually a great move! Remember that some things, you’ll learn through experience. If you want to go over a strategy, the please use this link schedule.heyyyhr.com/#/customer/heyyyhr
Hi Timeka I’m an administrative assistant but I do a lot of HR related responsibilities like recruitment, benefits, staffing, onboarding, termination, leaves, overtime as well as my admin related roles for almost a year. I sent an email for a change of designation (for a HR generalist) since I personally think I do so much more than my role says. Do you think this was a good move ? Also I work in retail And sadly I did on the job training (I basically trained my own self because I had to learn every single thing on my own!)
Hi, I think it would be best to update your resume where it reflects the HR duties you’ve done. Yes, if you want to work in HR full time, then I think it’s a good move. Some times has gone by, what’s the update? Did they change you’d job title?
Would you do a video of explaining HR in different industries. A lot of HR personals would say don’t go into healthcare HR in comparison to like being HR in the technology industry.
Hmmmm! You’ve got my brain cells moving bc that’s soooo true! I’d never work in manufacturing! Lol consider it done! That’s on my list to record ASAP … thx for watching!!!
You're welcome! That's a loaded question .. lol Some of my go-to's are local SHRM meetings, getting SHRM, HR.com, etc email newsletters, getting my broker and benefit account partners emails, reading the HR Magazine, reading the emails from my HRIS's, joining HR Groups on Facebook & LinkedIn (i.e. HRPOC - FB and NAAAHR, etc.), colleagues in my network, etc.
Hello, this video is very helpful, and I would love for you to be my HR mentor. I am currently a HR Generalist and looking to learn more about the various responsibilities.
I’m sooo happy you found it helpful! Heyyy HR Mentoring is coming soon & I’m keeping everyone updated via email so join my email list to ensure I get those details to you! 💜💜 www.heyyyhr.com
Hi Timeka, what happens when you have all the credentials and 10 years of TA experience but you can't find a Generalist position? Do you have any advice? Thanks 😊
You’re resume doesn’t show your transferrable skills & it probably speaks more to TA than overall HR. I can definitely help you with a Resume Review. Here’s the Link: hello.dubsado.com/public/form/view/638fe3cd4c44e67ff49ba0d6
Timeka great video presentation congrats... May I ask are the things about HR generalist Same in India. Because that is where I live or do employers expect different...
I’m not sure. To my knowledge HR Generalist isn’t a common job title in India, but I will ask my current VP of HR bc part of our team is in India, then I’ll let you know. I do know that our HR team in India spends a lot of time with hiring documents since the employment laws are so different in India.
Into and HR Coordinator and HR Assistant, yes. For an HR Generalist, that depends on the size of the org, the size of the HR dept and the industry. I wouldn't suggest it.
Completely depends on what your personal & professional goals are. Pros for me are being able to have so many options for work since nearly every company needs HR, career growth & more opportunities to make more money.
@@HeyyyHR thank you, I just made a choice to go as HR generalist for the company I work for. After working years in management. Definitely excited for the challenges to come. Great ones I hope
I wanna get into HR since I graduated with my bachelors degree in communication studies. I have no experience in HR but I do have customer service. Can I still get a job in hr without no experience
Timeka! You have never lied! I follow and watch your videos and did everything you shared and what do you know...

I’m past my 20’s and am finally getting my degree in HR in December. Really looking to climb the ladder since I’m really behind where I should be. What advice would you have to get a generalist position directly out of school?

You deserve very like. This was a very throughout and informative video
Awww! Thank you! It comes so natural that I feel like I left out details

I’m happy you found my channel bc I’m launching mentoring options before the end of this month. Join my email list because I will be giving updates there & allowing those on my email list to choose mentoring options first.
Hi Timeka, I am a new subscriber. I have recently transitioned to HR so I have really been benefitting from your content. I am in 🇨🇦 . Could you do a video on navigating different HRIS systems?
Thx for subscribing! Glad I could help.
Sure! Any particular systems or just an overview of all HRISs?
@@HeyyyHR HRIS in general. I was thinking you could do like a mini series: Workday, BambooHR etc. Thank you for responding. Congrats on your new job!

Thank you!
You're welcome!
Awesome ! Thank you very informative :)
You are soooo welcome! 💜💜 I did a video where I compared HR Generalist to HRBP. Have you seen it?
No I haven’t I will be sure to check it .
@@sarahbrownpolk3246 perfect!
Great video🎉
Sooo happy you enjoyed it! 💜💜💜
Awesome video! I’m nervous about transitioning into my new role though I’ve been in HR for a few years now.
I just accepted a pilot position as an HR Generalist for a major company. This position is completely different than my last few positions.
As an HR specialist in a factory, I was responsible for all terms, corrective actions, investigations, orientations, onboarding, and training documents. As for my second HR position, I was responsible for compliance related items, retention records, onboarding, orientations, and hiring.
For my new position, I’m a traveling HR generalist that will be working alongside the Regional Operations Team. I’m a bit nervous as my responsibilities are different and I need to be more confident in this role since I am working with higher members of management. 😩
How can I build the necessary professional relationships with my Market and Regional Management team in order to get the necessary feedback I need to do my job? I’m nervous as this position is more focused on building relationships and establishing trust with my peers.
Thanks!!
Congrats Patti!!! That’s actually a great move! Remember that some things, you’ll learn through experience.

Hi Timeka I’m an administrative assistant but I do a lot of HR related responsibilities like recruitment, benefits, staffing, onboarding, termination, leaves, overtime as well as my admin related roles for almost a year. I sent an email for a change of designation (for a HR generalist) since I personally think I do so much more than my role says. Do you think this was a good move ? Also I work in retail And sadly I did on the job training (I basically trained my own self because I had to learn every single thing on my own!)
Hi, I think it would be best to update your resume where it reflects the HR duties you’ve done.
Yes, if you want to work in HR full time, then I think it’s a good move. Some times has gone by, what’s the update? Did they change you’d job title?
Thank you.
You're welcome!💜
I am an HR Specialist (Recruitment/Placement- Staffing) and it is definitely not sales and we do know the simplist things, thank you.
Facts! I’ve held a specialist role too! Have a video coming out for specialist soon! Very soon so please subscribe & hit alerts
Would you do a video of explaining HR in different industries. A lot of HR personals would say don’t go into healthcare HR in comparison to like being HR in the technology industry.
Hmmmm! You’ve got my brain cells moving bc that’s soooo true! I’d never work in manufacturing! Lol consider it done! That’s on my list to record ASAP … thx for watching!!!
This is so great
Thanks for the video! What resources do you use to stay up to date on everything HR?
You're welcome! That's a loaded question .. lol Some of my go-to's are local SHRM meetings, getting SHRM, HR.com, etc email newsletters, getting my broker and benefit account partners emails, reading the HR Magazine, reading the emails from my HRIS's, joining HR Groups on Facebook & LinkedIn (i.e. HRPOC - FB and NAAAHR, etc.), colleagues in my network, etc.
I am a HR Assistant and these roles sound similar my ultimate goal is to be an HR manager. The

Hi Timeka, what happens when you have all the credentials and 10 years of TA experience but you can't find a Generalist position? Do you have any advice? Thanks 😊
You’re resume doesn’t show your transferrable skills & it probably speaks more to TA than overall HR. I can definitely help you with a Resume Review. Here’s the Link: hello.dubsado.com/public/form/view/638fe3cd4c44e67ff49ba0d6
Love it!!

Guys sorry I'm a bit confused...how does recruitment lean more towards sales than HR? Even if we are taking in house?
External recruiters are incentives/paid like sales people and have the same metrics.
@@HeyyyHRright I got you... whereas in house recruiter s would be part of the Talent Acquisition team, I guess. Thanks a lot for the clarification 🎉
Not necessarily since most companies do not have a TA department but internal recruiters typically get a regular salary with no commission.
Timeka great video presentation congrats...
May I ask are the things about HR generalist Same in India. Because that is where I live or do employers expect different...
I’m not sure. To my knowledge HR Generalist isn’t a common job title in India, but I will ask my current VP of HR bc part of our team is in India, then I’ll let you know.
I do know that our HR team in India spends a lot of time with hiring documents since the employment laws are so different in India.
I found out from my team, that it’s the same in India 💜
@@HeyyyHR Thank you Timeka for your honest opinion. You are sincere.
@@Fan-zx1lz you’re so welcome
My school offers hr management- organizational management BAS specialization does this fall under a generalist ?
I'm not sure. I'd need to see the courses and curriculum.
This is where I’m at I want a generalist role so I can get the fuck outta recruiting!
Iktr! 😂😂
Do you think an executive assistant could successfully transition into an HR generalist?
Into and HR Coordinator and HR Assistant, yes. For an HR Generalist, that depends on the size of the org, the size of the HR dept and the industry. I wouldn't suggest it.
Hello ma'am, can I have a job in HR with Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education degree? Thank you in advance for your reply💗✨
Yep, you sure can. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy! lol Honestly, HR Degrees are still fairly new so it's not uncommon to not have one.
@@HeyyyHR thanks a lot💗✨
@@withpyonno_17 you’re welcome 💜
What are the pros of being in HR?
Completely depends on what your personal & professional goals are. Pros for me are being able to have so many options for work since nearly every company needs HR, career growth & more opportunities to make more money.
@@HeyyyHR thank you, I just made a choice to go as HR generalist for the company I work for. After working years in management. Definitely excited for the challenges to come. Great ones I hope
