HRMI offers Guaranteed Internship for all
Chaturangi Perera who recently finished the Executive Diploma at HRMI said, ‘ HRMI sent me to Bodyline Horana for an internship. I worked hard and never thought as an intern. I did my utmost and was totally committed during my internship and I was so happy when I was offered a permanent job at Bodyline. That’s my advice to every student, go to an institution which not only teaches the subject but also gives you the training. During training, give your best and don’t think it’s a short term internship, be positive and work hard, then you will do well’.
Last Sunday, our correspondent met with several parents of students who waited until their children finished classes at HRMI and on inquiring said, ‘We travel over 200 kilometres every Sunday to bring our children to attend HR classes here because this place is different’. ‘ Here the children are shown a clear pathway. They know their future; they are taught not only HR, Business English and IT, but also how to write a CV, how to face an Interview and how to get about in an office’. HRMI has a policy of providing a HR internship training no sooner a student finishes the Level 1 Certificate course and thereafter facilitate in job placement. Mr Upali Jayarathna commented that HRMI actually delivers its promise of training and employment and his nephew was so happy working for Lalans Rubber as an HR executive after following a course at HRMI. He further said,

What is the point of following a course if you can’t find a job? That’s why we take all the trouble to travel because here it’s a total package’.
