• Ensure that sourcing and recruitment efforts comply with federal and state laws, and local procedures governing EEO/AA. HR doesn’t stand for Huge Risk- we want to ensure compliance but more importantly that we are treating all applicants, internal candidates, and potential employees with equity and respect for the process.

Let’s work together to succeed together! Relevant experience in the following areas is a good start:

• Proficiency using ATS systems (JazzHR) FYI this might be changing; we are looking at a new HRIS and potentially a new ATS along with it.
