Throughout the first four weeks of internship in HCM, I was involved in various projects in the rewards team. I mainly worked with Eva Lee and Georgi Suen on the HCM information and reporting projects: 1: coordinating industry-wide round table for the HCM technology in Asia region 2. Updating training matertials in the training center together with an US intern 3. Helping to tranform the EV lettlers applicable to China branches.
For the round-table project, I was responsible for compiling a list of contact persons who were also working in HR IS field. We actually started from a nearly empty spreadsheet with only a few people known in other banks. By utilizing the European network, we gradually got in touch with quite a lot of bankers and IBM, a company solution provider. We just sent out a formal invitation to all the participants and the forum will be hosted by us in mid-August. In the following week, I will continue to follow up with the event, preapring necessay presentation materials for the forum.
The second project was updating training materials for the training center. These manuals were mainly for internal users like WFA and generalist for handling problems like new hire, termination etc. My job was to organize, update and consolidate the documents. Since I was not very familiar with the operations of the HR system, Geogi offered a lot of help and guildance to me throughout the process. More than that, as I was working with Marcus, an US intern, we also conducted occasionally phone calls to update each other on the progress of the documents. we have completed two global process documents so far.
The third project was about translating the EV letter for the Chinese market. Since Goldman Sachs was developing the China market rapidly,making the need for simplified Chinese letters was growing. With the guidance of Eva and Georgi, I helped translated the English letters into Chinese ones. For our next step, we will have the translated letter going through the legal/ compliance for final review.
Besides these three projects, I also help Shirlin a bit on the interbank benefits survey. Every two years, the rewards team does a bench-marking survey to make sure Goldman is competitive against other competitors. I helped consolidate and verified the Korea part of the survey. The benefits survey helps me a lot in understanding the benefit structure of Goldman Sachs in Korea market.
