Why Should You Hire a HR Specialist with Penbrothers

Overview of the Role

Your HR Specialist builds the people operations that let your business grow without breaking. They think systematically about talent acquisition, employee development, and compliance frameworks. But they also handle the daily work of onboarding, policy implementation, and employee relations. Not just administrators, but people strategists.

Candidate Skillset

They know HCM platforms like BambooHR and Workday, plus CRM systems for talent management. Employment law, compensation frameworks, performance management systems. The technical foundation is solid. But here’s what sets them apart: they understand business strategy, design scalable processes, and think employee lifetime value over headcount. Experience with SaaS, startups, or high-growth environments.

How We Vet HR Specialist Candidates

We don’t just verify HR credentials and experience. Every HR Specialist candidate completes real HR scenarios that demonstrate their ability to handle employee relations, implement HR policies, and provide strategic HR support across multiple business functions.
Every candidate typically goes through validated skills assessments powered by TestGorilla:

  • Human Resources (HR) Fundamentals: Evaluates comprehensive HR knowledge, policy implementation, and employee lifecycle management;
  • Employee Relations: Tests conflict resolution, performance management, and workplace issue handling capabilities;
  • Communication: Assesses professional employee interaction and management consultation skills;
  • Critical Thinking: Measures analytical approach to HR challenges and strategic problem-solving abilities.
Have specific assessment requirements?
We seamlessly integrate your custom tests, HR case study evaluations, or compliance assessments into our vetting process. Whether using our standard assessments or your specialized requirements, only candidates who demonstrate genuine expertise make it through our evaluation.

Ways They'll Collaborate with and Make an Impact on Your Team

Your HR Specialist becomes the foundation for sustainable growth. Leadership needs talent pipelines. Managers need performance frameworks. Employees need development paths. They understand how people operations drive business outcomes, not just compliance. They’ll build systems that attract, develop, and retain talent.
