That feeling when you have been promoted to GM of a small company that has not had an HR professional, ever.. and you start looking through employee files and onboarding procedures, and feel like your head may explode…

Any tips on dealing with incomplete files and creating an on boarding process literally from scratch on top of already filling two full time positions? Do most states have a checklist for new hires somewhere? It’s been years since I have done HR work.

I currently work at a medium sized firm and have about two years experience in personal injury litigation. The billable hours and lack of work life balance are really getting to me and I am looking to switch to something else out of litigation, preferably in house. I am also looking to relocate to a different state. How do I go about properly marketing myself to companies that might not take my relocation and minimal experience seriously?

I got a job as a infrastructure consultant right out of college 3 years ago and later became a solutions architect at the company I am at now. I have a degree in CS and never really got the chance to use my programming skills (Java, python, Springboot framework). I’m finding that I’m not really in to platform engineering or cloud infrastructure and would like to pivot to software/app development. And suggestions on where I could get started on making this transition?

I have been invited to participate in a 360 for a former manager. Per the email invite, my former manager chose the 360 participants although each evaluation is anonymous. This manager did not perform well. I am struggling with how to be honest and give examples and feeling embarrassed, imagining when she figures out that I wrote the comments. I have not submitted my evaluation yet. I would appreciate any advice.

I am currently unemployed (but looking) an opportunity to consult has potentially fallen into my lap. Before I shut it down for a lack of experience, I want to know if it's something that I can even do. It's a very very small company, not even 3 FTE. But they are looking for someone to come in, create a Handbook(I can do that), provide benefits, etc.

Is that difficult to implement? I can't imagine it being so, but I don't want to set myself up to fail.
