The past two weeks I have been working with the Small Field
Ops Division of the State Personnel Department. The Small Field Ops
Division helps to provide HR for the SPD offices that are located off-site
around the state. It was interesting to learn how the Small Field Ops Division
works to support those off-site locations.
During my time with the Small Field Ops Division, I was able
to work on a number of different projects that I feel will add benefit to the
SPD in the future. One of the projects that I completed was a succession
planning guide. I had learned about succession planning in my college
classes, but it was great to be able to apply those lessons to a real world
situation.
I also had the privilege of working within the SPD’s HRIS
testing system. The department is currently working to make their
recruitment process more streamlined, so I was able to partner with IT and test
the updated Talent Manager features. It was great to learn how much
teamwork goes into making an idea like an automated recruitment process into a
reality. Speaking of recruitment, I also worked to source applicants for
a human resources director position and posted open state positions on various
websites.
Overall, I would say these past two weeks were well
spent. I was able to further my knowledge of PeopleSoft while learning
about all of the steps involved in developing a new product that changes work
flow. My next two weeks will be spent working in the human resources
department located at the National Guard’s headquarters. It will be interesting
to see what it is like to work on a National Guard base!
