Choy has a ready answer：” I think most people in the profession are attracted by a long-term goal. Since its one of the few areas where you can see the whole operation, it can lead to an influ

22、ential (有影响的)role on the management. Nothing happens in the company which isnt affected by or doesnt influence its employees, so the HR department is a very in里ortant part of any business.”However, not all people agree.

23、ctually contribute?” But rising levels of pay show that die profession growing importance is widely recognized. As Choy points out, salaries have never been higher and. in addition, HR managers often receive large annual bonuses.Despite the financial rewards, HR managers often feel they are not prop
