I just graduated from a decent public university with a degree in Economics, 3.6 GPA. So I'm pretty average, but I have *no* technical skills at all.
Is HR a decent entry-level gig? From past experience, it seems like I'd mostly be competing with total dipshits, so hopefully getting a job wouldn't be that hard. Then again, my degree wouldn't transfer at all.
Thoughts?

Do you have a vagina?

Nah, a pretty great willy. However, I'm guessing an entry-level job would mean a female hiring manager -- so perhaps a dick would help.
I used to major in Nursing, and they were always looking for more dudes. Perhaps HR is different, though.

It's a joke of a job. I can't tell you how many "HR Professionals" I've seen who have being a waitress at Applebees listed as their previous work experience.

At this point, I'm down for anything. I have no technical skills whatsofuckingever.
Also, I have to apply to a job in my city of Madison, WI [1 year lease, no car] so it limits my options of being able to apply to a wider variety of jobs.
At this point I'm desperate for anything that isn't total shit.

HR is for women. They take themselves too seriously and have 0 real skills.

I don't take myself too seriously, but I have 0 skills. That makes me think that I'm ahead of the curve.

It sounds like you really don't have much of a choice between "decent entry-level" and just "any fucking job."
You are correct, HR doesn't involve economics and pretty much doesn't require much brainpower.
If your choice is unemployment or a shitty HR job, the latter is what you should chose every time, obviously.

this isn't necessarily true.
taking an HR job dooms you to never being able to break into something like banking, which you totally could do with an econ degree.

What about the university? Don't they have entry level crap? And Madison is the capital right?

Hey dude,
My mom worked as a waitress and then went into HR whilst going to school part time. She graduated, moved up in the company and is now an executive in her branch.
Don't make those sweeping generalizations and statements. If someone is improving their lives, that's always a good fucking thing. Who cares if they worked at Applebees? Clearly they're working to become better by working at HR and developing themselves.
In my company, HR are the easiest role right after reception. They however get paid a shit ton. And the head of the department is a dude. Yes, mostly women work in HR but, again, they get paid a shit ton.
