Frequently Asked Questions

Why is that the best part of this job?

The variety. It’s never the same two days in a row; you could interview one day and figure out a policy dispute the next.

How much experience is needed?

We are looking for around 3–5 years of HR experience, because in order to manage a myriad of scenarios on your own with confidence, you do need some shared reference points.

Do I report to a Manager?

Yes, you will be primarily reporting to the HR Manager, but with an overall control of your daily duties.

Will I handle payroll?

You’ll aid the Payroll Manager by furnishing him with a roster of accurate employee information, but you aren’t on the hook for cutting checks or filing taxes.

Can I specialize later?

Absolutely. A lot of Generalists learn that they’re passionate about a specific subset— e.g., Talent Acquisition or Employee Relations — and ultimately end up specializing in management.
