Dear Executive Recruiter:

I am in the process of seeking a human resources generalist position where I can use my skills in:

• Employee relations - resolved more than 3,000 employee relations problems ranging from discipline to sexual harassment issues without a single negative judgment.

• Retention - improved employee retention and absences by 75% through incentives, planning and variable work schedules.

• Recruitment - recruited more than 1,000 employees ranging from production workers to senior management for a leading university as well as manufacturing and financial services organizations.

• Organization development - introduced programs for English as a second language that improved communications for production workers, set up a safety committee that resulted in a number of training programs lowering workers' compensation rates, provided training that achieved an ISO 9000 rating within two years, and delivered other programs dealing with harassment, productivity, quality and leadership.

• Compensation and benefits plans - designed and implemented a number of compensation and benefit plans for both non-exempt and exempt employees. These plans permitted the companies to attract the best recruits in engineering, marketing, management and production.

• Facilities - managed manufacturing and executive offices for finance and high-tech manufacturing companies including maintenance, expansion, communications, safety and compliance.

If you are working on a client assignment for a highly proficient, hands-on human resources generalist, I would welcome hearing from you.

Sincerely,

 

Mary Jones
