Agree with your comment.
And yes, I do remember that I was once a "fresher". At the beginning of my career I had no educational qualifications like a degree - and I still do not have a degree. I started work in an office - at the bottom - I was the mail boy and filing clerk. That is where most people started and they learned the skills from the higher up staff in order to progress in their careers. Only after learning the basics could you then progress to specialty areas like HR, Finance, etc.
When I started, I worked for the Government in the Post Office and we had a program whereby people with degrees could join the organisation at a slightly higher salary and job designation, BUT they still only had simple jobs until they learned the ropes and could progress to higher jobs.
Even today, I think it would still be almost unheard of here in Australia for a University Graduate straight out of school with no practical experience to obtain a job as a HR Manager.
