Human Resources Department Interview Report

Improved Essays
I am conducting and interview with Brit Minor from Gregg County Human Resources department. I am conducting my interview inside a room that is used to interview job candidates at Gregg County Court house in Longview Texas. The date is November 14, 2016.
Ms. Minor is an administrative assistant. Because Gregg county has a smaller Human Resources department she handles new hire orientation, open job placement, and job descriptions. She also handles level one conflicts that come into the Gregg County Human Resources department
Ms. Minor’s responsibilities start at the hiring process. She creates the job listings for open positions and decides the qualifications.
I ask Ms. Minor how she decided the education levels for positions?
“Because this HR department works assists in hiring for many of the courts and clerk’s offices as well as janitorial offices what I am looking for in a candidate can vary as far as experience and education. Often I will speak with the managers over those positions to get their perspective on what can of caudate they think would best fit. After I speak with

Minor prompted be to ask Ms. Minor not what she liked least about her job, but what did she consider the hardest part of her job?
“The hardest part of my job hands down is dealing with conflict. “Being in any HR role often means that you cannot cloud the line between being "friends" and being in an upper level leadership position. I have had times where some of the employees and I have become friends outside of work. This worked well until a conflict came up at work where I could not be their friend. I have to be able to distinguish the friendship and my roles as an HR professional. That can be hard, especially if you are having to let go of an employee that you consider a friend.”
I have never actually given that aspect of Human Resource Management much thought. That does seem like it could be difficult. I ask Ms. Minor What was it she likes most about her

    The biggest challenges that Permalco faces is to convince female minority candidates to come to their company is to find the right set of potential hires. Doing this would require that the search look in the right location and the right environment. It will be necessary to find candidates who have the ability to work in harsh and uncontrolled environments where extended work hours are required under less than acceptable conditions. Some of these possible environments are the oil industry, military and mining locations. Additionally, it is clear that the potential for a discrimination case is very high as only minority female candidates are being sought after.…

    According to Lillian, the role that human resources play in a business has changed from just managing employees to acting as a business partner that shares the responsibility for the deliverables with internal clients (Mannino). Before HR functioned as a support center for the management of the company. Nowadays, HR defines company wide policies and procedures while running centralized and strategic initiatives in the areas of training and development. This change has shaped the economic factors of labor as technology advancement has speed up paperwork processing and the efficiency of computer programs has allow HR managers like Lillian allocate more time in running strategic. Lillian explained how employees no longer stick to one company and potential candidates invest more time in honing labor skills and social connections that allow companies to deem them valuable assets or not for the goal of success (Mannino).…

    During this week’s assignment I found the interview of Dr. Allen Frances was very interesting. Being in the Human Services program here at SCC and wanting to become a social worker I have been told that I need to be familiar with the DSM-5. I definitely agree with him that normality is difficult to define and it has become a cultural concept rather than a medical concept. Dr. Allen Frances states that our society is already immersed in pill popping which I didn’t find surprising at all. My opinion and viewpoint towards this is I feel like sometimes people get diagnosed incorrectly but any easy solution to make someone feel better is by taking medications and switching them up if some aren’t working.…

    Many experiences in my life have changed my views in multiple ways, but by far the most life changing experience has to be when I was elected Daingerfield District Vice-President for the FFA. This experience has broadened my comfort zone of shyness and unconfidence, and as the FFA Opening Ceremonies say, it brought me “into the glorious sunlight of brotherhood and cooperation.” I finally began to realize after Greenhand Camp, my freshman year, that I might have a potential future in the FFA. With the support of my chapter, friends, family and much devoted prayer, I was able to accomplish my fears and officially announce that I was running for District Officer.…

    Support Resource Interview Students with behavioral issues in school may not have access to the support that they need because the schools they are do not have the funding necessary to work with these students. These students have a higher chance of suspension, which causes a loss of information due to days of missed instruction (Stagman & Cooper, 2010). Services are available to combat the issues, but almost eighty percent of students with issues do not receive any services for their behavioral issues (Stagman & Cooper, 2010). Many times, mental health services are needed for these students. When interviewing two teachers from Sprout U School of the Arts about their support system for students, there were similar and dissimilar answers.…
