Your HR Story Discussion Topic Task: Reply to this topic Nearly everyone has some kind of experience with human resources, whether it is personal, something that happened to someone they know, or something they have read about or seen in the news media. In this discussion, you and your peers will share HR experiences to get us started thinking about the diverse field of human resource management. For your initial post, address the following: First, introduce yourself to the class. Explain why you joined this program and what you hope to learn, and add anything you would like to share about yourself. Then describe any experiences you or someone you know has had with HR (just be sure to keep company and employee names anonymous). This could be something as simple as interviewing for a job, reviewing benefits, or consulting with HR professionals on specific issues or initiatives. Finally, identify the day-to-day functions of HR that were being performed in this encounter. Finally, respond to at least two of your peers by commenting on the following: Based on what you read in this module's readings, how does the experience shared by your peers reflect what you have learned about the evolution of the role of HR professionals? What part of the employee life cycle was the experience they described related to?
