I received the award for Performer of the Month for the Global Human Resource Service Center Office for the month of June 2017. My assigned project as an intern was to develop the Global Human Resources Service Center's Desk Officer Handbook. The handbook I managed will be the main training guide for new Desk Officers in the office. The handbook contained over 100 pages with detailed instructions, hyperlinks, and screenshots. I managed the creation of instructional videos for customers who are going on a permanent change of station. The videos will serve as an efficient way to inform customers of the processes they will be going through. It will also help to significantly increase productivity among Desk Officers.At the end of my time at DOD, I was offered and accepted a full time position upon graduation.
