Megan started in Equilar as a Research Analyst and grew up to be a HR manager. Our CEO often cites her an example of how one can grow at Equilar. When she started her career in HR, as a manager I could immediately feel the benefit in terms of hiring and administrative processes. SInce, we are a small company she had to play multiple roles. She planned many fun and well organized company events without stressing herself out. She plans things out very well with adequate help from third parties. She is so resourceful, I remember her playing regional music from Pandora based on the cuisine during company lunches. As Megan grew, she trained the right people and could delegate her duties successfully. She continues to excel as she is currently converting all our paper forms to online forms with approval workflow with hardly any cost to the company. How? as I told before, she is very resourceful. We already used ADP for our payroll, Megan is expanding it as an ERP with no additional cost. Megan even sent out email to all managers to share the job posting to replace her position as she is planning to exit after more than 6 years. She is a well balanced person who can be friendly and say no when needed as HR should be. If you are reading this and planning to hire her, I strongly believe she will exceed your expectation.

Megan is an amazing HR resource. Ever since joining Equilar I have been pleasantly surprised at how professional and detail oriented she is in everything she does. The teams I manage has hired over a dozen new employees with the assistance of Megan and her team. We deal with all kinds of situations including campus recruiting, partnering with recruiters, social media, employee development and unavoidably, the employee release. In each instance Megan's advice, instinct and support has be invaluable. On the Engineering teams, there are often immigration considerations that have to be addressed and Megan has served as the conduit to our legal team. She has proven to work well across cultural boundaries as well. Megan's work style is very upbeat and relaxed. She has served as a mentor for jr. level HR personnel and they are all doing well. She runs major sections of our monthly company meetings and has helped us to develop a very positive HR culture. It's a pleasure to work with such a high level performer.
