HR Graduate Review

I work as a HR Graduate where I complete 4 6-month rotations in different areas of HR. So far I believe I will complete rotations in Talent and Learning, People Analytics and HR Business Partnering. I support on HR projects during these rotations.

It's very well organised. We were informed of all the Early Careers events we would have when we started and have regular check-ins with the Early Careers team on how our apprenticeships are going. My HR rotations are well thought out and planned based on upcoming projects so I am getting involved in valuable work.

I receive lots of support from the Early Careers team, including weekly drop-in opportunities and they always follow-up if I flag a concern about anything. I also receive support and time to talk through any concerns with my manager if I highlight something concerning me.

My skills coach through my apprenticeship provider has been very helpful. They respond to my emails when I have questions about assignments or concerns, and I have a review or check-in call every couple of months which is useful to review my progress, deadlines and quality of my work.

I think learning more about HR, as someone without a thorough understanding of the function, has been useful as I start to work in the area and learn on-the-job. I have found that some of the apprenticeship topics and assignments aren't as aligned to my work as I have been working in a centre of excellence, whereas my apprenticeship topics have focused on more generalist HR roles.

Experian has a lovely feel to the company. Everyone is super friendly and always willing to help one another. My work has shown me that the company really care about developing their employees through many learning, training and career development opportunities. The Early Careers programme and community are particularly warm, supportive and inclusive, and a network outside of your specific area to connect with and turn to for advice or to test ideas with.
