Networking

Being a member of BC HRMA has great benefits. Recently I have been attending the round table groups. Such groups include: Recruiting, Training & Development, Generalist. Each group provides a chance to gain insight on practices within other companies and network with other HR professionals. One interesting situation happened to me while sitting in on a roundtable last week. I had decided to start a conversation with the person sitting next to me. I introduced myself and then she introduced herself. When I asked her where she works, she mentioned the name of a local gaming company. Surprised, I explained my background and interest in pursuing a HR career within the video game industry. We ended up exchanging information.
