Human resources: The HR department provides comprehensive
human resource management services for the company. Its

jobs at companies. Sometimes large companies have their own
recruitment staff, but more often, a private individual works for
one or more companies to find a person who meets the specific
requirements of a job the company has open. Frequently, the
job recruiter is a freelance worker who will recruit for various
companies at the same time.
Interviewing: An interview is a conversation in which the
interviewer questions the interviewee in order to gain
information. Interviews can be formal or informal, structured or
unstructured. They can be conducted one-to-one or in groups,
face to face or by telephone, Skype, or email.
Payroll: The financial records for employee wages/salaries,
withholding, deductions, bonuses, pay for time not worked
(holidays, vacations, sick time, etc.) and other items on
employee pay checks. It can also mean the record of total
earnings of all employees for a company in a fiscal year.
