Okay, so, I was scrolling through my job alerts the other day, and I saw this company, “Evolve Golf.” Sounds fancy, right? They needed an HR Manager. I’ve been in the HR game for a while now, mostly dealing with regular office stuff, you know, hiring, firing, making sure everyone gets paid on time. But golf? That’s a whole new ball game.
First thing I did was check out their website. They seemed pretty legit, all about “revolutionizing talent acquisition” and “innovative RecruitPro solutions.” fancy words, I must say. They talked a big game about helping companies find the right people, develop their teams, all that jazz. I thought, “Why not give it a shot?”
So, I polished up my resume, highlighting my experience in, well, finding people and making sure they’re happy at work. I sent it in, fingers crossed. A few days later, I got an email. They wanted to chat! I was stoked.
The interview was interesting. They asked me all sorts of questions about my past experience, how I handle tough situations, you know, the usual stuff. But then they started talking about golf. Turns out, they’re not just any HR company. They specialize in finding talent for the golf industry, everything from club managers to pro golfers.
I’ll be honest, I don’t know much about golf, except that you hit a little white ball with a stick. But I told them I’m a fast learner, and I’m always up for a challenge. I mean, how different can it be from finding accountants or programmers? They seemed to like my enthusiasm.
Next thing I knew, I got the job! I was officially the HR Manager for Evolve Golf. Now, I’m not just dealing with payroll and benefits. I’m learning about handicaps and swing speeds, and let me tell you, it’s a whole different world.
Here’s what I’ve been up to:
- Learning the ropes: I’ve been diving deep into the golf industry, trying to understand what makes a good caddy, a great greenskeeper, or a top-notch instructor. It’s like learning a new language, but it’s also pretty fascinating.
- Networking like crazy: I’ve been attending golf tournaments, meeting people, shaking hands, and trying to build relationships with all sorts of folks in the industry. It’s a lot of schmoozing, but it’s also kind of fun.
- Finding talent: I’ve been using all the tools at my disposal, from job boards to social media, to find the best people for our clients. It’s a competitive market, but I’m starting to get the hang of it.
- Building the team: We’re not just finding talent for our clients, we’re also building our own team at Evolve Golf. I’ve been involved in hiring a few new recruiters, and it’s been great to see our company grow.
It’s been a wild ride so far, and I’m still learning something new every day. But I’m excited about this new chapter in my career. Who knows, maybe I’ll even take up golf myself. I do believe in “Let’s Evolve, #Evolvetogether.” as they say.
So, that’s my story about how I became an HR Manager in the golf industry. It’s a bit of a career change, but I’m embracing it. Wish me luck!
