What I do at UpdatePromise
I wear a lot of different hats here, I like to call myself an HR Department of One! I handle everything from recruiting Companywide (i have probably hired 90% of your future coworkers!), Company insurances, Training and Development, amongst other things.
Overall, I do whatever is thrown at me and try to help my team members in the process. HR is very fun and fluid here.

Why UpdatePromise
The opportunities and the people. You truly have an opportunity to create your own career and success here and we like to see people grow and obtain their career goals. Your success is our success at the end of the day.
You will learn more here than you will at any other Company because of how much and how fast we are growing. We lean on the expertise and experience of our team members to get stuff done.
We have a goal of becoming the largest and best Consumer Experience platform in the automotive industry and its not going to be easy. We want people that care about the Company and everyones success. We want people who are going to roll up their sleeves and get things done. We want people who will pick up the trash 10 feet around them and go the extra mile.
All of our team members exude these principles, so if this sounds like you then i definitely recommend it. If it doesn't, you will probably be more successful somewhere else.

Who am I?
I went to Cal Poly Pomona and oddly enough majored in Human Resources and Management. I was the first HR Rep hired here a little over 4 years ago and have helped build out the HR Department to what it is today (alongside my team members and mentors, of course).
I love getting people in the door and seeing them grow and prosper to take the opportunities that are made here. It has been such a great experience seeing the growth of the Company and the team members that make up the Company over the past 4 years!
