1xbet best casino website are some of the big changes you have implemented since you started in this position?
In 2014, several of us in Human Capital Services attended a yellow belt training, part of the Lean Six Sigma methodology used to improve business processes. During this training we learned how to think through our current processes and how to redesign/improve them. As a result, we streamlined and automated the hiring process for hourly and graduate students by enhancing HRIS template-based 1xbet best casino website process by allowing department Human Capital Services liaisons to 1xbet best casino website hourly and graduate students without completing paper documents.
The template allows us to use the data already entered to complete the 1xbet best casino website document and prefill other important documents with the employee's name, social security number, etc. We sped up the process by saving two minutes per 1xbet best casino website . We 1xbet best casino website 4,000 new students per year so the time savings adds up and is distributed across the university.
We established the HCS Transaction Call 1xbet best casino website in 2015.

The Call 1xbet best casino website is available by phone at 785-532-1888 or online by visiting the Chat Service on the HCS 1xbet best casino website liaison website.
1xbet best casino website are your goals for improving employment at K-State?
When I was hired in what was then Human Resources, everything was done by hand. To 1xbet best casino website an employee, we completed large data processing cards and sent them to the processing center to be keyed into the main frame. Now I'm in a position where I can help make the process of hiring and paying employees more automated and help make the department HSC liaisons' jobs easier. It is challenging and interesting work.
How will what you are doing help K-State 1xbet best casino website ?
Right now, our team and the HCS department liaisons are completing paper transactions and manually entering data online to 1xbet best casino website university support staff and unclassified employees. In many cases, the paperwork has to be mailed or in some cases hand-delivered to HCS, which adds time to the process. My team is working closely with the HCS Talent Acquisition team to automate the hiring process for these individuals. Our goal is to 1xbet best casino website employees quicker so they have needed resources available to them their first day at work without paper documents zigzagging across campus.
To assist HCS 1xbet best casino website liaisons complete required forms and transactions, we conducted regular Form I-9 training sessions as well as payroll funding training sessions throughout the year.
1xbet best casino website keeps you up at night?
There is so much to do. There are so many ongoing projects and so much that we want to improve. I want it to take place tomorrow but it takes time to implement needed enhancements.
