Human Resources Associates play a key role in administering the human resources (HR) policies, procedures, and programs of the organization. As vital team members within the HR department, apprentices are involved with a variety of functions including payroll, benefits management, recruitment, hiring, on-boarding, performance management, and personnel-related record keeping. HR Associates require strong emotional intelligence and must maintain high levels of professionalism and confidentiality.
Ideal Candidate
You like the idea of developing a versatile skill set that is transferable.
Friends confide in you, they trust you to keep their secrets.
You are often told you are a good listener.
You are comfortable talking with all different kinds of people – all ages (including adults!), interests and walks of life.
You are comfortable with following the rules, and will call out your friends if you think they might be doing something they could get in trouble for.
Though it may not be your favorite pastime, you can handle reading technical or boring material.
Everyone gets along with you, even that grumpy teacher who doesn’t like anyone!
