I believe you sstand a chance. it all depends on your ability to put in to use your previous experience. They are softwares for almost every aspect of life now and they all require testing at one point or the other. to begin you could consider reading articles on software testing and looking for testing jobs relating to HR applications. for instance UAT testing for an HR application. Testing does not have to be all technical.

Hi there

we are always interested in hearing from people who are interested in joining our industry.

There are many ways that you can start, but I would suggest that one of the best is to go along to a peer sharing event of testers and meet some people and ask some questions.

You'll get a good feel for how to get started, and make some contacts who can help.
