They oversee recruiting, interviewing, and hiring of new employees; consult with top executives on strategic planning; and serve as a link between an organization's management and its employees. HR Managers are vital members of any organization's team by working with more than just employees as they deal with the organization’s legal team, go to unemployment hearings or work-related court issues, deal with unions, etc. Human Resources Managers have a multitude of duties including training, interviewing, hiring/firing, planning and hosting employee and company events, and many other related activities that keep them extremely busy.
