Currently, I am looking for entry-level jobs that are in the Human Resources, Administrative, or Communications fields. Right now, I can definitely see my career path going towards Human Resources. I plan to spend a few years working in HR to see if it would be a good career choice for me. If all works out, I would go to back to school and get my HR certification.
