Trying to get into HR. What am I doing wrong?

Post Body

Hello HR professionals,

Let's get right to it. I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology. In my last position, I was Assistant Manager of a well known national jewelry store. In this position, I was in charge of all HR functions for a rotating staff (onboarding, recruiting, payroll, etc). My previous work history is all customer service related for upwards of 10 years (all part-time due to schooling).

All I want is to get my foot in the door and work my way up.

What can I do to better myself for a position? I feel like this is an uphill battle I can't win.

Frankly I stumbled upon this subreddit and now I hope you can provide input. If geography matters, USA > Tennessee.
