SCRUBS, or the SHRM

Club Recruitment Ultimate BiannualSocial, is held every semester for oldermembers and newer members ofSHRM to interact and have a funtime.

The event was coordinated by our very own Director of Student Affairs,

essica Higashi. We had our social atManoa District Park. We had a hugeturnout as more than 40 SHRMies

ere there! We started off SCRUBS with anintroduction from the executive boardand jumped right into our first game,“Who are you?” The objective was tolearn the other person’s name, do afunny dance, and Jan-Ken-Po todetermine who would part of theirline. In the end, there were two longlines and the losing team would haveto crawl in between the legs of the

inning team. Everyone got to know

each other’s names and had a blast.

It wouldn’t be a SCRUBS, if thereasn’t any dancing. We had four

teams of amazing dancers perform forour judges. Our talented dancers gavea memorable “SHRM down for

WHAT?!”, “Crank that”, and poppingperformances. There was a tie but we

ere all winners.

We concluded the day with some

dodgeball. SHRMies showed their armstrength and reflexes in this epicmatch. Even the people around thearea were interested in the game asthey cheered.

After that, it was time to clean up andbreak down the tent. We all made anew friend that day and SHRMies hada blast. We would like to thank Jessicaand the rest of the executive board focoming early to reserve a spot and

making sure every SHRMie had fun.

Back to Business

September 19

STRIKE! Was the sound you would hear atIBC’s Back to Business BowlingNight. SHRMies capped off a long

week with some fun bowling withother Shidler Clubs. We had largeturnout so the two lanes assigned werefilled with SHRMies.

We had a friendly competitionbetween our alumni and currentmembers. It’s safe to say that thecurrent members soundly defeated thealumni.

Besides bowling, you can findSHRMies interacting with other clubsor dancing to the jams that wereplaying.

It was great to see SHRMies distresseand having a fun time! They enjoyedthis fun atmosphere and look forwardto other fun events.

SHRMies a chance to look the

Tour De Cure was another fun

volunteering event that made

us work as a team to get thing

done.

Community Service was a

bonding experience that mad

each hour together much mor

meaningful and fun!

staple for all SHRMies, as it allows

them to participate in interviews with professionals and receive

feedback.

Even though it was a mock

interview, SHRMies took upon

themselves to dress in formal

business attire, and interviewed like

it was a real interview.

The professionals were veryimpressed with their efforts and

abilities to answer questions. We

would like to thank all of the

professionals that took time to help

Socials

PLAY As hard as you work!

At SHRM, we understand thereneeds to be a balance ofprofessional development and fun. That’s why there were fun socialssuch as a beach day, floatilla, andtailgating planned to allowSHRMies to relax and make newfriends. When we plan beach days, we dothings with a twist. A tie – dye was what we came up with and it was a

messy and fun time. We fed hungrystomachs with Chef Jessica behindthe grill.

We were back at the beach withFloatilla, but this time it was a jointsocial with other Shidler clubs.Members had floaties and coulddrift away to relaxation.

SHRM Aloha always supports our

UH football team so it was onlyright we have a tailgate beforegame. We were joined by otherShidler Clubs, which made it extrafun.

Seeing SHRMies having fun,smiling and laughing, and makingfriends is something we strike for.

Worksho sINTERVIEWING is a majoraspect of getting a job, so we got IMan Uyeda from Proservice tohelp us.

She gave very helpful tips on whatto do before and after an interviewShe also gave clear examples of what recruiters want to hear and

how to stand out among othercandidates to increase your chanceof getting a job.

Following up with a professional was just as important as during aninterview. SHRMies were advisedto do so after every interview sothey could learn more about theorganization and be morememorable.

Thank you I-Man for yourexpertise on this topic andSHRMies had a great time learningabout interviewing.

Social Media:

RESUMES,

We all need one to get a job, butconstructing an ideal one for aposition could be very difficult. That’s why the professionals atKumabe HR, Kara Iwasaki andKristine Uclaray, has graciously volunteer to teach SHRMies how

to build a great resume as well asestablishing a good cover letter andsocial media.

SHRMies got to see theimportance of having a clean socialmedia when it comes to jobs. As well as having a LinkedIn thatother recruiters could view.

Thank you very much to Kara andKristine for taking time out to helpus out. SHRMies learned a lot andit’ll undoubtedly help them landjobs.

Worksho s




COMPANY tours are a great way

for SHRMies to visit a company

and see the culture of it. It allows professionals to talk to them and

exchange contacts. This

beneficial relationship helps both parties.

For this semester, StaffingSolutions and New York Life

allowed us to visit their office and

see their operations. It wasfascinating to see the environment

and behind-the-scenes of each

company. We were then allowed

to ask questions to a panel.

At our Staffing Solutions Tour,

members were able to do a mock

clerical test such as a typing test.Our very own Vice President,Charise Yamatsuka, was blazing

fast at over 100 words per

minute!

For our New York Life Tour, we

were allowed to hear the success

stories of each professional andhow they positioned themselves

to get where they are now.

It was great learning from all ofthese professionals and thank you

for giving us the opportunity to

do so.

MEET OUR SHRMIES

Q#: If you had one wish, what

would it be?

Kelsey Monticalvo

My major is Human Resource Management

and I am expected to graduate in Spring

2015. Within this coming Spring semester,

one goal I have is to find an internship that

will get me experience in the HR field as wellas expand my knowledge on what i t's like to

work within HR and building

connections. Another goal I have for myself

is to find a job/career area that I

am passionate about and also

one that allows me to help

and serve others. I find a lot

of fulfillment out of serving

others to help them work

through situations or to help

them achieve their goals, so

finding something that fits thiswith my career path would be

ideal to achieving this goal.

A year ago, I tried out one of the otherbusiness clubs, joined without knowing

anyone, but it wasn't a good fit for me and I

never really tried any other clubs. At the

beginning of this semester, a couple of my

classmates mentioned SHRM to me and

suggested I join with them. This appealed to

me because I would actually know a couplepeople prior to joining and I also heard it

was one of the smaller business clubs. With

“I would want a job after

graduation"

- Isaac Lui

“I want to meet a nice girl."

-Zane Wu

“I want to be financiallystable and live comfortably

with my family."

-Ross Nakagawa

“I would like to curecancer.”

-Roy Franco

"I would like unlimited

wishes so I solve all of the

world's problems.

-Rasheeda Grant

"I would like to not worry

about money and tuition."

-Andrew Kuboyama

"I would like to have my

own nonprofit organization

that helps people prepare

for the business world."Alyssa-Ashley Lardizabal

"I would like to create a

scholarship for Native

Hawaiian students that

wants to get into the

business world."

-Deone Costa

that in mind, I went to one of the meetings

and felt welcomed, and decided to give it a

shot. SHRM has taught me a lot about being

in a professional setting and how to get a

job through all the workshops, office tours

and mock interviews that I've attended this

semester. I've learned how to better buildmy resume, how to approach professionals,

the do's and don'ts of interviewing, and

mostly to just be myself through it all. It's also

helped me to think about the

different areas of HR that I could

possibly pursue and which ones

my interest me more than

others.

In 5 years, I see myself in an HRmanagement

position. Although I'm from

California, I've really loved living in

Hawaii and it's been a great fit for me,

so I know I want to stay here. Working with

Hawaiian Airlines has really appealed to mebecause they are doing really well in their

industry and I really admire the way they run

their business/company through my own

personal experience and interaction, as well

as things that I've heard and read. I seemyself finding a good fit and securing a

position with the HR department in Hawaiian

Airlines.

Matthew Liboon

My major is Business Management and I will

be graduating this December (2014). Mygoals are to one day hold a management

position with a great company and

eventually develop my own business.

I joined SHRM because I wanted to get more

involved with school activities during my last

semester. At first my friend wanted

me to join a Fraternity with him.

But with my schedule I did not

have time to pledge. I than

saw the SHRM table set up at

Shidler recruiting new

members. That’s where I met

Arik Ma who broke down

what the club was all about.

I knew this would be the perfect

opportunity to get involved on

campus and yet still have time to work my

on-campus job and have time to study.

I’ve learned quite a bit while at SHRM. The

guest speakers were awesome and gave us

valuable information on how to do well in an

interview. SHRM also helped me clean up

my resume to make it look very presentable

to employers.

My favorite part about SHRM would have to

be all of the social activities that are held

during the semester. This includes club

picnics, tailgates and Karaoke. Aw yes

Karaoke would have to be my

favorite part about SHRM. I also enjoyedmeeting so many new people that if I was

not in SHRM I would have never met. I enjoy

working out, listening to music and simplyspending time with friends and family. I see

myself working with a great company and

working just as hard there as I’ve been

working in school.

I also see myself traveling the

world and if the opportunity

arises I would love to work

abroad in another country.

SHRM WELLNESS TIPSHealthy Eating

Helpguide.org

1.

Simplify

Instead of being overly concerned with counting

calories or measuring portion sizes, think of your diet in

terms of color, variety, and freshness. This way it should

be easier to make healthy choices. Focus on finding

foods you love and easy recipes that incorporate a

few fresh ingredients. Gradually, your diet will become

healthier and more delicious.

2.

Start slow and make changes to eating habits

over time

Trying to make your diet healthy overnight isn’t realistic

or smart. Changing everything at once usually leads to

cheating or giving on your new eating plan. Make

small steps, and as your small changes become habits,

you can continue to add healthier choices to your diet

3.

Every change you make to improve your dietmatters You don’t have to be perfect and you don’t have to

completely eliminate foods you enjoy to have a

healthy diet. The long term goal is to feel good, have

more energy, and reduce the risk of cancer and

disease. Don’t let your missteps derail you— every

healthy food choice you make counts.

4. Smaller portions

When dining out, choose a starter instead of an entree,split a dish with a friend, and don't order supersized

anything. At home, use smaller plates, think about

serving sizes in realistic terms, and start small. If you

don't feel satisfied at the end of a meal, try adding

more leafy green vegetables or rounding off the meal

with fresh fruit.

5. Eat Breakfast Design your sleep environment to establish the

conditions you need for sleep. Your bedroom should

be cool – between 60 and 67 degrees. Your bedroomshould also be free from any noise that can disturb your

sleep. Finally, your bedroom should be free from any

light. Check your room for noises or other distractions.

This includes a bed partner's sleep disruptions such as

snoring.

6. Try not to think of certain foods as “off-limits”

When you ban certain foods or food groups, it is

natural to want those foods more, and then feel like a

failure if you give in to temptation. If you are drawntowards sweet, salty, or unhealthy foods, start by

reducing portion sizes and not eating them as often. If

the rest of your diet is healthy, eating a burger and fries

once a week probably won’t have too much of a

detrimental effect on your health. Eating junk food just

once a month will have even less of an impact. As you

reduce your intake of unhealthy foods, you may find

yourself craving them less or thinking of them as only

occasional indulgences.

7.

Listen to your body

Ask yourself if you are really hungry, or have a glass of

water to see if you are thirsty instead of hungry. During

a meal, stop eating before you feel full. It actually

takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that

it has had enough food, so eat slowly.

8.

Avoid eating at night Try to eat dinner earlier in the day and then fast for 14-

16 hours until breakfast the next morning. Early studies

suggest that this simple dietary adjustment — eating

only when you’re most active and giving your digestive

system a long break each day — may help to regulate

weight. After-dinner snacks tend to be high in fat and

calories so are best avoided, anyway.
