Human Resources

About us

The HR Society is run by 3 passionate HRM Students - Melanie Atwood, Hiba Khan and Sajju Sathiyan and is for all LSE students that are passionate about Human Resource Management and people management. Whilst intended to appeal and to create a strong sense of belonging amongst students of Human Resource and Organisations in the Department of Management, this society welcomes all those looking to explore careers, research and practice in HRM.

The society will also encourage our HRO Alumni to become members, so we have strong alumni engagement from current HR practitioners. Thus, a key activity of the group is to enhance the networking opportunities for all those looking to learn more about HRM practice and careers. In doing so, it is intended that support is provided to current students as they explore the HR job market and balance this with learning and living in London.

Membership

£3 membership. It would be a great chance for you to meet HR and CIPD professionals, HRO alumni and many other people who would be able to support you and answer any questions you might have.
