Do you think jobs (outside of HR) might not wanna hire you if you have experience in HR?

Not at all. It could make you more attractive if you market yourself the right way.

Hmm, never considered that, but possibly. I changed careers after working in HR a while back and had a hard time finding something at first even though a lot of the skills fit into another industry. I guess some companies could avoid you if they're not doing ish right and thinking you'd report them.

I think a lot of people have a bias against HR, because you mostly only talk to your HR rep when something is going wrong. So the department becomes associated with problems and frustration. Plus there's sometimes a culture where revenue generating departments look down on 'internal' departments (except super high level internal people).

In my experience, HR experience has never been a minus, always a plus. These people know how to manage, they know how to interact, and they know how an office is run. They have good interpersonal skills. Always a plus.

That is an interesting idea. I don't know. I think if they really want you they will come correct with you.

Change the word "resouces" to "capital" on the resume.
Avoid using HR on resume.
