First Impressions Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics Wausau, Wis. TITLE HR Intern

What I did: During my internship, I have been involved in or exposed to: employee recruitment, reference checks, employee onboarding, managing employee files, implementing the new HRIS (Human Resource Information System), applying relative demographics to a Turnover Cost/Benefit Analysis, creating presentations for “Lunch and Learns,” filling out unemployment discharge questionnaire’s, writing termination letters, searching for compatible insurance brokers, handling employee relations issues, and creating various spreadsheets. What I liked: Variety is the spice of life in the world of HR! I am constantly kept busy with different assignments and tasks, and I like to be challenged with both capacity and restraints. Every week I am exposed to new and different aspects of HR, and I believe it is a field where continual growth will occur. Future Dream Job: I would absolutely love to be a writer for SNL. I often find myself reflecting on normal, everyday situations and finding the humor in them.
