Helpful
Who is an ideal candidate for this position? You're known as a problem-solver and a go-to person for sound advice. You work well under pressure and think quick on your feet - remaining calm and professional. You're able to see the big picture and the small details without much effort. Discretion comes naturally to you and going "above and beyond" is not just a catch phrase – it's what you do. You're able to connect with people across diverse backgrounds. You can balance compliance and customer service. You can easily engage with others, be assertive, and diplomatic at the same time. This position takes a unique skill set. Good communication skills are a must.

What is a typical day in this position? No two days are the same. One day you may be assisting two employees in resolving a conflict with each other. The next you may be taking statements as part of an investigation that could lead to someone losing their job. Let's be honest – this role is challenging. But along with the challenges comes the reward of resolving conflicts and helping to foster a positive and productive work environment.

What can I expect in the first 60-90 days? Your first few weeks will be getting up to speed on all things FSU HR – our policies, procedures, and what is expected of you. You'll also spend time shadowing other ELR personnel on cases, so you have a good understanding how to manage and process cases. There's on the job training, but you'll need to bring your previous experience and skills to the table; we're definitely not starting at entry-level. Previous experience in employee and/or labor relations is very helpful, and we'll spend time transferring those previous skills to this role.
