What is the most rewarding thing about working in HR?
One of the most fulfilling aspects of my HR experience has been the opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives. I’ve assisted people in getting college degrees, helped others succeed in new or existing jobs and enabled access to care that has saved lives. I understand that my role is often just to enable these things, but I appreciate that HR allows me to do that.
Was there a pivotal moment in your life that brought you into your field?
I had intended to become an engineer. My first year of college was in engineering, and I decided to work at a structural engineering firm during that year. I found that I liked the technical problems you deal with in engineering, but I didn’t belong in a field where people barely talk with each other. A day of work at an engineering firm is quiet. The discovery that I enjoyed hard problems and needed to work with people led me to HR. To Main Page
