• “IGS opened doors not just for my internship, but for my career! I learned a tremendous amount from my supervisor and the network I made during my time will last a lifetime. This internship taught me that HR is the career field I want to be in. I was hired at the end of my internship and have moved to Los Angeles permanently. I am well on my way now.”

Human Resource

HR is one of the spokes that keeps the corporate wheel spinning. One of our most successful placements came in this field: a client of ours was hired by the company he interned with and went onto a successful career in Los Angeles. Internships in most fields do not result in job offers. However, within the human resource field, if you can show your mettle, you have a good chance of being hired.

HR stresses leadership, cohesion, and loyalty with the belief that all play important roles in organizational success. In simple terms, an organization’s human resource management strategy should maximize return on investment in the organization’s human capital and minimize financial risk.

Human resource managers seek to achieve this by aligning the supply of skilled and qualified individuals and the capabilities of the current workforce, with the organizations ongoing and future business plans and requirements to maximize return on investment and secure future survival and success.

In ensuring such objectives are achieved, the human resource function is to implement an organization’s human resource requirements effectively, taking into account federal, state and local labor laws and regulations; ethical business practices; and net cost, in a manner that maximizes, as far as possible, employee motivation, commitment and productivity.
