Student Recruiter

As a part of my Human Resource Management (Management 3300) course taken at Ohio University, I had the opportunity to implement recruitment strategies for a real-world client, City of Athens Parks and Recreation. I collaborated with a group of three other individuals along with my entire class to recruit for the city's summer lifeguards, pool attendant, and day care counselors positions. 

​

Throughout the semester, my group and I analyzed the city's previous and existing hiring processes, developed a solution to attract seasonal employees, and make recommendations for future recruitment. Our team developed a comprehensive recruitment plan that included targeted social media campaigns, visually engaging promotional posters, and on-campus outreach initiatives designed to appeal to high school and college students seeking summer employment.

​

This experience allowed me to apply classroom concepts in a practical setting—enhancing my understanding of strategic recruitment, communication, and collaboration. It also gave me a firsthand look at how human resources initiatives can directly support community programs and seasonal workforce needs. Working on this project strengthened my ability to think creatively, coordinate within a team, and design solutions that balance organizational goals with real-world feasibility.
