Haha, HR, really?
Most people don’t have a serious run-in with HR. 95% of what they see HR do is routine, so they may be forgiven for thinking HR jobs are about doing routine processes. But the routine stuff is a small part of what HR do. Most of their time is spent on sensitive, uncomfortable, confrontational exception handling. It’s some of the least-automatable work going.
- ec109685 3y agoUnfortunately a lot of time is spent on the routine stuff, at least across three companies I’ve been a part of.
- ssss11 3y agoAre you in HR? If not you could be the literal person the parent is forgiving. To their point, I have worked closely with HR in law firms and behind the scenes there are alot of those circumstances they describe which the general staff would not be privy to. There’s no way that is being automated away.
