Description
Do you like the Care Bears? We absolutely love them! They’re cute and cuddly, but most importantly, they teach some amazing lessons about caring and empathy. Well, our HR team tries to take those messages to heart, and we’re looking for Temporary HR Assistants who are ready to put that kind of care into serving our employees.

Our Temporary HR Assistants are responsible for many important tasks. They monitor incoming seasonal applications and troubleshoot simple employee issues. They maintain up-to-date postings and assist the application process, so strong organizational skills and communication skills are a definite must.
