Abstract
Hire Ventures, Inc. is an HR consulting firm founded in Atlanta, GA. Their mission is to “enable clients to find and keep talent by implementing streamlined processes, leveraging the right technology, and delivering on-demand, scalable hourly HR consulting and hourly recruiting consulting services” (Hire Ventures, 2022). My internship at Hire Ventures, Inc. followed a short 8-week timeline that focused on the development of a workplace wellness campaign series. Role responsibilities included conducting an internal needs analysis to create the base framework for the wellness series, developing topics for a 10-week wellness blog series that targets the employees and employers of our clientele, researching current trends and best practices, writing blog ready information regarding each topic, and creating supplemental material (e.g., training videos, activity worksheets, etc.). Final topics included in the wellness series covered burnout, recovery, relaxation remorse, work stress, and work-life balance. Hire Ventures offered complete flexibility and autonomy over my work. This experience further solidified my interest in Occupational Health Psychology and instilled a confidence as an I-O practitioner. Within this role, I felt I was able to utilize my I-O training and make an impact on the organization. Following the wellness campaign, Hire Ventures, Inc. continues to make efforts in supporting their clients’ and employees’ wellbeing by implementing micro-break policies, encouraging PTO, posting wellness resources to their social media accounts (i.e., LinkedIn, Instagram, etc.) and more.
