Administrative Support Assistant/HR Specialist

I was an HR Specialist for Tresco, Inc., the fourth largest employer in the state of New Mexico. I was promoted to HR Specialist, but I started at Tresco as an Administrative Support Assistant to the Human Resources Department. As an administrative assistant, I had many duties. First, I handled the multi-line telephone system and greeted our clients, consumers, and employees. I placed recruitment ads, entered employment applications into the data base, set up employment interviews, typed and mailed correspondences, figured the daily deposit, compiled statistical information for reports (e.g. affirmative actions and full time equivalent reports) wrote job descriptions, mailed employee birthday cards, arranged board meetings, holiday parties, and other special events, controlled office supply inventory, and completed special projects given to me by the CEO, the CAO, the HR Director, the Controller, and the Safety Coordinator. I am an excellent administrative assistant and enjoy being the point of contact for administration. At Tresco, when it became apparent to my supervisors that I was performing many of the functions of an HR Specialist, I was promoted to that position. As an HR Specialist, I continued many of the duties I had as an administrative assistant with the added responsibilities of an HR Specialist. Those duties included, but in no way were limited to, interviewing perspective employees, recommending for hire those that I thought were a good job match, executing background checks, fingerprinting, drug tests, preparation of the new employee packets, conducting the first day of new employee orientation, I-9 verifications, compiling and preparing affirmative actions, FTE, and Disparate Act reports, acting as the company representative at job fairs, acting as the company liaison to the New Mexico Department of Labor, the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation and other professional employment organization, and creating and presenting annual trainings on HIPAA, Harassment, Discrimination, Workforce Violence, and Drug Awareness, With these duties has come a very thorough knowledge of the EEOC, OSHA, JWOD, NISH, the Americans with Disabilities Act, FMLA, COBRA, and other human resources related topics.
