shop floor workers use computers and robots.
There is a current labor shortage for many job openings, and the few individuals that do apply lack the necessary skills to work in teams, make decisions or use sophisticated technology.
What should you have done as the VP of HR Management to prepare for this problem?
What should you do to adress the problem today?
For the year 2015?

I am going for an interview at Western Dental corporate office for a human resources assistant position. Somewhat nervous about the type of questions they ask for a HR position. Any suggestions? Im interviewing w/ the VP of HR and the HR manager which is a little intimidating! You’re in the fridge, get it? I was hired as an HR Manager at a company that had hired a lot of illegal immigrants before I was there. I found out from my boss that this was the reason the two previous HR Managers quit the job. Not to mention my Manager (VP, owner’s daughter) wouldn’t let me report an injury for an employee who burned her hand in a small fire. When I asked why, she said “we can’t report this ’cause if OSHA finds out we use illegal chemicals we will be shut down”. After numerous employees (illegal immigrants) reported having headaches, and the two miscarraiges in the department, I confronted my Manager about the illegal chemicals. She wasn’t too happy and fired me this past Friday for making a “payroll mistake”. I went for the on-site interview in late Februray after many contacts through phones and emails for months. It went pretty well and they asked me to fill out the employment application form, which has the information on the desired pay scale, starting date, and references. In the middle of March the VP contacted me stating they really wanted me to join, but offered a salary much lower than I wanted. I told them that was too low and the VP said he would come up with another number the next day. Then the number turned out to be really close to my stated desired pay and I happily accepted. At the same time I asked to delay my starting date a little bit if possible. This seemed no problem to them and I was told to expect my package next week. Then the coming week HR people contacted me for some additional documents. I know they contacted 2 of my references (not sure on the 3rd). It has been 2+ weeks since the last call. Without an written offer, it’s risky to arrange things. I work in a small office for a small business in Florida. Workers complained about an Asian woman microwaving fish because of the odor. It’s her favorite food and she comes from a different culture- she doesn’t see it as offensive. She never signed or read an HR Manual. I did, and there’s no food odor policy. The complainers told the VP, who told her to stop cooking and eating fish. She obeyed. What does the law say about this, especially if she refused and got fired? I have been interviewing over the phone with a company for about 4 weeks now. I have had phone conversations with the Acct. Director, Supervisor and the VP of Acct Services.I have a friend that works there and said that everyone liked me. Last week (weds) I had my final interview before I was supposed to go to the company. However since then the HR manager that I have been dealing with has just disappeared, she will not return my call or email. This is for a major company so I am trying to give it two weeks before I really start to think that it is a no go. Has anyone experienced this, or have an idea of what might be going on. I haven’t received a letter, email or phone call saying that I didn’t get the job but at the same time I haven’t heard anything either. Any help on this would be appreciated *** I really want this job and am really trying to stay positive about it. |
