    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Day-to-Day, my role consists of a variety of tasks, for example, inbox management, HR system management, recruitment requests, forming business communications, monthly business update slides, long service awards, private healthcare schemes, management reports and payroll.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • During my HR placement, I developed my communication and interpersonal skills by working with employees and managers daily. I also gained hands-on experience with HR systems which I can easily apply later on. I have supported with recruitment processes from interviews to writing contract of employments allowing me to work on my attention to detail. Furthermore, I have had the chance to develop my excel skills widely, whether this be formulas or creating pivot tables. Overall, the placement helped me grow professionally and apply my academic knowledge in a real-world setting.
