Join The HR Specialist in celebrating the first-ever “HR Professionals Week,” a five-day tribute to all that human resources pros do to make American workplaces more effective and American businesses more successful.
HR Professionals Week runs from Monday, March 1 through Friday, March 5. The HR Specialist family of HR-focused newsletters, books, webinars and online resources is a proud sponsor of HR Professionals Week.

Help Celebrate HR Professionals Week
Of course, HR isn’t all serious all the time, and neither is HR Professionals Week. To recognize the sometimes bizarre side of the HR profession, The HR Specialist is also soliciting practitioner responses to this question:
What’s the most bizarre thing you’ve ever experienced in a job interview?
Weigh in with your tales of what can go wrong when candidates sit down opposite an HR professional or hiring manager.
Reader voting at the end of the week will determine your favorite.
