  Jun 2015 - May 2017

  Human Resources Intern

  While serving at Alliant Energy Corporation, I gained experience across all facets of major HR functions, which encompassed payroll processing, tuition reimbursements, exit interviews, and new hire paperwork. As a result, I was able to expand the internship into serving as a designated HR Coordinator and main point of contact for 4,200+ employees, external candidates, and former employees. To support efficient operations, I triaged all incoming HR correspondence and held responsibility over the corporation’s recruitment schedule, including candidate screening, testing, and interviews. Following exit interviews, I thoroughly investigated potential concerns, and subsequently discussed any findings with the HR Business Partners, Employee and Labor Relations Specialists, and the former employee’s leadership team.Key Accomplishments:● Revamped data entry process for required OSHA compliance trainings to ensure timely entry of completed trainings into PeopleSoft, averaging 5,000 weekly entries.● Analyzed employee lifecycle data to present management recommendations aimed at attracting top-tier talent and increase retention.● Conducted biweekly audits of employee time reporting codes to reconcile and resolve over usage to reduce the number of employees reporting negative leave balances.
