I currently work as a HR Assistant in a clinical research organization and I recently received an increase of about 4% for my last year performance which overall was good! A receptionist who has about the same amount of experience as I do with no degree not only received a 4% increase but was also promoted to an HR Assistant role with an additional 4% increase, now making almost $3000 more then me. This has made me furious!! How can I approach my Director for a fair evaluation?? Or help her see my side without any threats. I currently need my job as I am planning on making some life changes.

A personnel manager deals with day-to-day tasks and issues. Examples are hiring, terminations, etc… Having a degree in HR, I know some golden rules of interviewing and would think that the general public would know too-especially a VP of HR. One being that you don’t inquire about someone’s nationality. I went for an interview with the VP of HR and an HR manager for a well known company. First thing out of the VP’s mouth was directed at the HR manager and was “do you know where this last name is from?” she says no and he says iran. I say nothing. Then he askes me some questions relevant to the job and looks at my resume and asks why I did not put down that I speak farsi. I tell him because I am not iranian, I am assyrian. He then turns to his HR manager and says “oohh, assyrians are a very ancient civilization, remind me to tell you about them later”. Again, I say nothing. Then out of nowhere, he turns to the HR manager and says you know, if we (we as in the United States) ever decided to attack Iran, you know for their nuclear weapons, there won’t be any assyrians left. I don’t know why, but again I said nothing. I know I did fine in the interview because it consisted of 3 vague questions (what I know about the company, why i picked HR, and my background). I got their cards, went home and send out thank you notes. I then realized by his name, that he was armenian. If anyone knows the history between armenians and assyrians, they will know that they do not like each other. Couple days later in the mail, I get a rejection letter. Any suggestions? “I have forwarded your application to the department director”? I have a complaint against my Manager and the HR director want a co-worker from another department to head the hearing ? can this be done ? I recently moved to southern California from the east coast and have been working at this job for about 3 months now. I am paid semi-monthly so I’m scheduled to be paid on the 10th and 25th of each month. My paycheck has always been 2 to 3 days late and actually never cared (I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it). This time however, it’ been over a week and I still have not been paid. I called payroll and the lady was rude and stated that she couldn’t do anything about it and it is utimately my choice if I wanted to continue waiting for the mail or she can cancel the check and reissue it but that would mean a longer wait. I wasn’t too sure about Cali paycheck rules and I wanted my paycheck ASAP so I asked for her to reissue a new paycheck for me…. I didn’t know until after she had processed it that it would mean I won’t get paid until the next pay period. When I asked if there was anything I can do to speedy up this process, I was told “No. There’re nothing you can do it is a process.” to apply for a job.i need to know if dear jane smith (not her real name) would be too informal |
