Human Resource Manager Jobs
​If you would like a professional business career that is uniquely specialized, think about becoming a Human Resource Specialist. The job provides variety and the opportunity to make a difference not only to an organization, but to the people that are hired. You may be wondering about the education requirements, work environment and the duties of the job.
Job Description
HR managers and assistants are needed in every industry. They can be found in corporations, schools, government agencies, and healthcare facilities. However, the majority are employed in employment placement agencies and outsourcing businesses. Within the job, there are specializations in areas such as compensation, employee relations, training, benefits, recruiting, and interviewing.

Titles include people officer, generalist, assistant, group leader, coordinator, talent manager, reward governance, analyst, and manager. Departments are sometimes called Partner Resources, Employee Experience, Human Capital Management and Employee Success or Employee Services.
​
The salary for a human resource manager in 2014 averaged $57,420. Your duties in this field are dependent of the size of the company and of course, your job title. A generalist, for instance, will be responsible for a wider range of tasks, than an employee benefit manager. Here are the activities that come with the position, while not all of them will be required:
​Extend employment contracts and offers.
Handle the process of terminations.
Educate staff about benefits, leave of absences, and payroll.
Prepare data and trend reports from the human resource information system.
Execute plans for talent retention.
Handle employee counseling and discipline.
Prepare pre-hire paperwork.
Develop and enforce affirmative action program.
Ensure compliance with federal and state employment law.
Works with department supervisors and managers to match candidates to open positions.
Conducts background checks, drug screen tracking and verification of professional licenses.

Utilize the internet and job fairs to recruit in accord with the organization’s goals and strategy.
Oversee compensation programs.
Write position descriptions.
Recommend salary grades and stay abreast of salaries paid by competing employers.
Monitor staff levels.
Administer benefits.
Investigate employee complaints.
Write and implement policy.
Prepare employee review guidelines.
Interview and test applicants.
Contact applicant’s references.
Coordinate immigration filings.
Maintain employee files.
Education Requirements
You will need a Bachelor’s degree in business, finance or human resources. Additionally, you might be required to obtain a certificate that is modeled by the Society for Human Resource Management.  Some of the courses you will take in college are employment law, labor relations, human resource information systems, strategic staffing, training and development and compensation and benefits. You will learn about employee selection, employee placement, orientation, career development, regulations, how to develop personnel policies, and company culture. Human resource assistants can enter the field with less than a Bachelor’s degree.
 
Can You Manage an HR Department?
As you can see, the field of human resources is broad. Someone who has the proper education can go far in this career. If you are considering this job, ask yourself if you can see the big picture as well as execute the details. An HR specialist has to be able to be familiar with an organization’s mission and goals. Then, he or she must hire the right people to meet these objectives. This might involve developing relationships with local universities, working with head hunters, utilizing social media, and training and promoting from within. Besides satisfying the organization’s administrators, stake holders and board members, it is the job of the people officer to make sure the employees have job satisfaction so that they will stay long after they are hired. Additionally, a company that offers great benefits, career development opportunities, and a positive culture will attract the best talent. The capital resource department is responsible to determine what the company and the staff needs, and to execute the steps to fulfill those needs.
