HR Coordinator

In January 2013 I started off as the receptionist where I handled a very busy switchboard. This job entailed redirecting phone calls to the necessary department, attending to walk in clients, mail dispatch including cheques and stationery dispatch. I then started as HR Coordinator for their hotel DusitD2 in April 2013. I was able to select job applications from a job bank, shortlist them and call them in for interviews while coordinating with the HR Senior Officer. I would then give them a written interview after which I would mark it and grade the candidate as was required. From here I would hand the successful candidates to my supervisor.
