Do not apply for graduate trainee jobs alone.
There are jobs you can apply for as a graduate outside the graduate trainee schemes that pay well.
Most Organisations have them. Entry level jobs for recent graduates.
They usually come with 0-3 years experience with good pay. You are allowed to learn on the job and grow.
They are outside the graduate trainee scheme but they equally have good pay packages too.
Don't miss out on it.
If you are a fresh graduate and you desire a career in HR.
You need to know this..
HR as a career is expanding and is no longer like a decade ago when a HR person is mainly a generalist.
In many organisations today, HR has so many units. You can be in HR and not be involved in recruitment. Many people in HR are specialising in a areas that appeal to them.
In some organizations, You will be rotated round the different units to have a feel of what they do while you choose the area that will be your key area of expertise.
We now have recruitment, compensation and benefit, learning and development, onboarding, workforce planning, employee relations, Talent management, HR analytics and areas.
I am putting this out there so the fresh graduates following me can be aware of the opportunities in human resources management.
To work as a HR person, you just need to have a degree. Professional qualifications to have include CIHRM which is the chartered institute of human resources management.
We also have the society for human resource management SHRM. We also have the HRCI human resources certification institute.
In Nigeria, CIPM is the certification for HR professionals.
You can gain experience through internships to learn how things work while you decide on your area of specialisation and the certificates to earn.
Please HR professionals can add more information through the comment section.
Thank you.
Donโt take a break after your first degree. Pursue internships, apply for scholarships, go for graduate trainee roles, and take certification courses. Above all, avoid and ignore any unnecessary pressure or distractions from people watching and measuring your success. We will be fine, keep moving.
If you want scholarships in this 2026 and you are seriously serious about getting one.

โTo every man reading this: you are not a burden, and you do not have to carry the weight of the world alone. Speaking up is real strength.
I dislike it when people say, "You're using AI to write" or "You're using AI to create graphics," with the aims of diminishing your effort or achievement.
What exactly is AI for if not to help us work smarter?
The ability to give AI the right prompt, refine its output, and turn an idea into something valuable already requires a level of intelligence, creativity, and skill. AI doesn't replace thinking; it enhances it.
We don't criticize people for using calculators to solve complex equations, search engines to find information, or design software to create visuals. These are tools that help people become more productive. AI is no different.
The real value is not in the tool itself but in the person using it. Anyone can access AI, but not everyone can use it effectively.
Knowing what to ask, how to ask it, what to keep, what to discard, and how to improve the final result is a skill. AI may generate content, but human judgment, experience, and creativity are what make that content meaningful.
The future belongs to those who know how to combine their intelligence with the tools available to them, not those who refuse to use them.
For my first five years in corporate America I had no promotion.
Then in my next five, I had three.
Same me. Same company. Different results.
