My husband and I manage an apartment complex. I deal with tenants, process monthly rent, show apartments to prospective tenants, process all paperwork, and help with building maintenance.

Provide a variety of human resource services (employee relations, recruitment, training, compensation) to over 200 staff. Work as a member of a team in determining department- specific human resources needs and programs, including performance appraisal systems and training/orientation programs. Create many HR procedures. Implement a new recognition program. Teach a few management-training classes on topics such as employee recognition and documentation. Supervise receptionists.

Put together and wrote most of the HR handbook to be used by local governments in Utah. This handbook contains information on employment laws, recruitment, training, disciplinary action, etc.

Assist Director of Operations, 12 managers and 90 staff with administrative tasks and personnel issues. Perform recruitment and employee development activities.

Worked closely with students, lenders, and schools on completing student loan applications. Processed loan consolidation applications. Performed account maintenance duties.

I started a human resources function at this software company from ground up. Some of the projects I have completed so far include updating the employee handbook, setting up a process for FMLA, instituting a successful new employee onboarding process, improving the performance evaluation process, etc. It has been exciting to set everything in place and have a successful HR department up and running.
