I have no experience in HR but assisted with recruiting a interviewing as a Manager. I am trying to find a new job that will allow me to utilize my AS in Business Adminsitration and get hands on training in a HR support role since I have apporx. 11/2 till I get my degree. Most companies want you to have experience or a BA. Any suggestions?

*Apply to as many as possible
*Create a resume/cover letter which emphasizes releveant experience and not inexperience. Include your progress towards your BA
*Apply towards lower level HR department jobs (get your foot in the door as an assistant, reception, etc, in the HR department)

We acquire experience in HR and in any other field for that matter gradually and over a period of time and that is why it is called experience.
Since you have been involved in recruiting which is part of Personnel function, your foot is already in the door and all you therefore need is to stamp your feet there and walk into the door by getting involved in more HR activities.
Your BA would surely be an added advantage and so, keep on pursuing it as it would help you to be grounded theoretically.

If you are at a position that has a HR department ask about maybe doing so volunteer hours. This way you get the experience and you dont lose you job that pays the bills!
Good Luck
