@virginiazarate
Human Resources Generalist with strong recruiting, payroll, and employee safety experience, plus dependable customer service and clerical support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Human Resources Generalist with long-term experience supporting the full employee lifecycle—recruiting new hires, entering employee information into a database, and providing payroll back up. I also bring accounting experience and a consistent focus on accuracy, confidentiality, and compliance.
In my HR role, I served as a Safety Representative for all sites, conducting safety luncheons for employees and supporting safety-related processes like Workers compensation and COBRA. I take pride in being someone teams can rely on to keep operations running smoothly and employees informed.
Outside of HR, I’ve stayed versatile and dependable—training new employees in merchandise handling, and caring for infants and elderly clients with patience and attention to detail. Fluent in Spanish (read, write, and speak), I’m comfortable communicating clearly and professionally with people from different backgrounds.
