I enjoy being a Human Resources professional. I understand the value of having talented people working together to build exceptional brands. I also recognize the need to balance risk and compliance concerns. With that, I work with stakeholders to craft programs that satisfy these competing priorities.Since 2009 I've blogged about Human Resources and other workforce related topics. It and my other social media related activities has given me an opportunity to develop and grow as a business professional, connect and work with numerous like-minded professionals locally and globally, and provide others with a means to get a sense of who I am and what I can accomplish.Some of the highlights of my career include: launching a mentoring program; participating in local, state, and national conferences, either as a guest blogger, subject matter expert, or keynote speaker; being recognized by my peers as a person of influence. It’s also been a lot of fun!Victorio Milian: Human Resources, Reruitment, Social Media, Blogging, Public Speaking, Conferences, Networking, Blogger, Business Blogger, Recruitment Blogger, Social Media Mentoring, Personal Branding

At Pret A Manger, my job was to find the “Right Pret Person,” both for existing and expansion shops. This requires focus, drive, and creativity. I had to cut through the noise--educating candidates on the brand and the opportunities we can provide, engaging with diverse internal and external clients, utilizing the most effective tools--to ensure we found great people that would help Pret A Manger remain profitable and grow as a brand. The best part of my work was talking to candidates and hearing about where they came from and where they plan on going with their careers. I enjoyed seeing if their aspirations matched with Pret’s and bringing them on-board!Some of what I was able to achieve: reduce business costs by increasing number of internal referrals and reducing number of recruitment firms used to find external management candidates; successfully recruit over 40 Team Members for 2 brand new locations in a new market (Boston) within 3 weeks’ time; increase the quality of hire through training, feedback, and process improvement.Victorio Milian: Recruitment, Onboarding, Talent Management, Resumes, Recruitment Firms, Recruitment Strategy, Social Media Strategy, Recruitment Branding, Employer Branding, QSR Recruitment, Pret A Manger, Restaurant Managers, Team Members, Food Service, Hospitality, Customer Service

Since that time it’s grown to have over 250 stores, expanding at a pace of 15-30 shops per year.During my eight years with H&M I was fortunate enough to occupy several roles of ever increasing responsibility. I started in 2002 as a Department Manager, hired to be part of the original management team for a (then) brand new location. In 2003 I became the company’s first Store Human Resources Manager, overseeing all HR related functions at one of the company’s flagship locations in New York City. In 2005, I became a Human Resources Project Manager. During my 3 years in this role I was actively involved in the development and implementation of the first web-based time and attendance/scheduling system for H&M US. As I was performing this role I was also taking on additional responsibilities as the Human Resources Generalist for H&M US.

My time at H&M taught me the value of exceeding expectations, working in a collaborative fashion, and managing multiple priorities successfully.
