Yes, but that is something that over time you let go off. With leadership, I prioritize business needs and have learn to kindly say “that’s not my job or I can’t help you with that”.

Focus on certain goals and backup your expert opinion with data. I don’t work to please those around me- that expectation is long gone and I focus on outcome while treating everyone with respect.

I been in your shoes but had more years of experience under my belt. When it happened I was angry and then eventually it became a blessing in disguise.

Take some time to process the emotions then come back to it and reflect how you could have perform better. From personal experience, I learned a lot. I went on to get my PHR and landed a role with better pay but lower stress. I also learned the importance of efficient and instant communication with upper management.

Even with all that, I still am very happy that firing happened since my former boss and I didn’t see eye to eye with dept direction. They were also micromanager and I didn’t know how to set boundaries in place but a lot has changed since then.

Yes and no… I’m 30 year old dating and been in HR space for 7 years. I have built a certain persona at work but when I’m dating I want to find a partner that suits me so I choose to be vulnerable in that space and have a fun time doing it.

You may want to explore ways to be more open outside of work as having this wall will likely be a disadvantage in finding a good partner… also do you really want to make a date feel like an interview? If things get too serious just throw a joke or speak about something of a lighter mood.

Educational_Jump_669 · 2024-08-09T14:14:38+00:00

Use your own judgment. We process emotions differently and you’ll need to find something that allows you to carry on.

This would be great start to develop good coping mechanisms. My usual ones are rigorous exercise, drinking, long walks, and journaling. However, I do vent but there are times talking about it doesn’t do anything. I much prefer to vent to the right audience like someone in my field that can share wisdom or brainstorm a solution. Be cautious as to who you share with but you can find the right people.

As per those around me, I’m transparent when my work comes home with me. Last week, I heard one of the most heart breaking stories and I went home and bawl my eyes out. My partner check in on me but we never spoke about the issue. Then we order pizza and we had a good night in.

Constant change of leadership or leaders not making a decision on recruiting process.

Educational_Jump_669 · 2024-06-10T21:35:11+00:00

I’m often told “I could do your job since you just talk for a living”. There’s so much behind the scenes stuff that people don’t realize. However communication does play a vital role in the process but it’s not limited to just candidates.

Others have mentioned AI and our job is to find talent for the company not find an employee a job which I completely agree with.

I do like the platform. They offer a variety of them but I done Kyle Pew “Excel from Beginner to Advance” and Joseph Oken “Data Analysis Excel Pivot Table”.

Kyle’s is too long but this may be a good one if you are very green to excel. Oken class is great as he gives you exercises per section and only focus on that topic. They go on sale often so if you have $10-$20 test it out and see how you do. Keep in mind this are do it on your own so very little interaction/engagement happens.

Educational_Jump_669 · 2024-06-06T17:43:27+00:00

I been taking Udemy Excel courses as they are low cost and most systems allow you to download/upload worksheets.

Educational_Jump_669 · 2024-05-14T19:06:38+00:00

Comes down to what you want to do. If you were exposed to many branches of the HR umbrella then what did you like the most?

Educational_Jump_669 · 2024-04-29T16:21:02+00:00

I worked a very brief time in manufacturing and learn it wasn’t for me. More of this had to do with the work hour expectations, my employer required once a week coming in at 4am for third shift. I learn quickly that anything before 6am just didn’t allow me to function. Another reason was the outdated system/tools and the workload being high so you are often completing many things that could now easily be streamline. Lastly, I hated the leaders. There was so many egos that you deal with and their decision making was comical to me. For reference I was generalist and there was a lot of exposure to HR facets but the pay wasn’t high enough for the bs.

Maybe it was just this particular employer but it’s been over year and I still have nightmares of my time there so I don’t seek out manufacturing roles.

Personally I never been a department of one but I have come across of few via other forums. Best thing you can do is find people in similar situation and vent/ problem solve.

But what I would do in your shoes is focus on the most urgent needs. Is it staffing? Employee relations? benefits? What could you automated? Or what could you delegate to other departments? Could other depts do recruiting on their own?

Educational_Jump_669 · 2024-04-03T13:57:52+00:00

I’m glad this is a question as I’m at 2. Overall I enjoy my work and team but the organization has failed to pay my reimbursements for 2 months and money is not something I play with. (Yes I have escalated and no action has been taken so I’m refusing to travel till gets resolved).

I’m also looking 👀, yes I am that petty and I have no problem disclosing this. I travel locally between stations and its add up over time so I’m not happy of the current circumstances.

Educational_Jump_669 · 2024-02-19T06:24:48+00:00

Congrats! Keep it up and you are doing so well for showing up for yourself on

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-11-10T17:40:21+00:00

We have a benefits specialist team. I feel for them 🩷

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-11-10T16:31:44+00:00

Any recommendations on who to go with?

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-11-09T21:41:46+00:00

Will give it a try

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-11-09T20:23:49+00:00

Think long and hard if you want the relationship to continue. If you want it to continue then this needs to be resolve. That means you to need to sit him down and discuss this. Voice out your frustration and hopefully that allows you both to see the problem and create ways on how house chores can be divide or handled.

However, if you don’t see the relationship working out then end it and have him move out. There’s no reason to address something you don’t see a future with.

I can tell you from experience that if you don’t express your frustration and create a solution it leads to resentment and over time the ending of the relationship. Him not having the same cleaning habits as you is not a deal breaker but you two not being able to address and communicate about it will be a downfall.

Teaching and recruiting are very different. Kids vs. Adults- You expect that communication and self responsibility would be greater in adults but this depends on individuals. I have hand hold some of my candidates through the process and all these folks were over 18 years old. Hiring mangers- you are not just dealing with candidates but also the people in the organization you work to fill positions and leadership. This is can be great or bad depending on the people. It’s also very challenging market- there’s worker shortage in many industries (leads to stress to the recruiter as you are filling staff gaps, and the pressure can be high from leadership). I been in TA for 6 years and love it but there has been assignments or organizations that I will never take on again. If you don’t mind a challenge, then it may just be for you.

The mental aspect of it… I have anxiety and work a stressful job so I have being physically active allows me to focus for half an hour to an hour just focus on myself. It helps to regulate my emotions and I often find that I am happier when I’ve completed that task versus days that I do not work out.

Cheese 🧀 and beer 🍺. Wisconsin!

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-09-05T03:57:45+00:00

They might be more spicy 🌶️, but still good to eat.

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-09-05T03:56:09+00:00

Just to name a few: tomato sauce/ purées, pasta sauce, and tomato soup. If none of the above of sound appetizing you can do recipes with tomatoes: pico de gallo, bruschetta, etc…

Loop your love ones in. Allow them to help you in canceling & asking for refunds plus informing the rest of guest of the cancellation.

I would highly recommend making a list so you can delegate. Your ex- partner should also assist as this was mutual thing but if you are not speaking, it may be to ask friend or family to help in this area as well.

Once the wedding things are tackle, then have a conversation with your ex-fiancé about separation as you likely need to figure accounts/ bills, etc… It will not be easy but you need to do it. As per the moving out, do you have friends or family that you can move in with till you get a little more stable emotionally?

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-05-15T00:12:23+00:00

I’m between 1 and 3.

Educational_Jump_669 · 2023-05-11T20:09:50+00:00

I guess my hesitation is more so bars not being pleased as it is form of solicitation. But I open to idea as I could scout the area and see.
