@raiyaclark
Experienced Human Resource Specialist focused on leave management, ADA/FMLA compliance, and employee relations.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced Human Resource Specialist with nearly four years of focused expertise in leave of absence management, ADA accommodations, FMLA compliance, and employee relations, supported by hands-on use of HRIS platforms such as Workday, UKG, Salesforce and ServiceNow.
Across roles at Truist Bank and First Cash, Inc., I administered end-to-end leave processes, advised employees and managers on eligibility and documentation, and streamlined workflows to reduce resolution time by 25%, while maintaining medical confidentiality and up-to-date knowledge of federal, state, and local leave laws.
I bring strong case management, policy interpretation, performance management consultation, and technical/support experience from prior customer- and technical-support roles, and I am pursuing SHRM-CP to further formalize my HR expertise.
