Do you keep up with changes in HR law and legislation? If so what resources do you rely on for your information?
Labor and employment laws continually change, and it can take a lot of effort to remain up-to-date on these changes. The interviewer wants evidence that you have an interest in remaining in-the-know on changes in your industry. Perhaps you have set up Google alerts, or you subscribe to HR newsletters. Perhaps your company has a Human Resources lawyer who keeps you informed of changes in your region. Show the interviewer that you put effort into remaining in-the-know and that you rely on reputable sources for your information.
"The best resource I have come across in my HR career is the Society for Human Resource Management. I have a subscription that I pay for, and along with that comes real-time legislative updates. Their website and newsletters are beneficial and also address hot topics and upcoming changes. I also subscribe to updates from the Department of Labor. With these resources, I never feel taken off guard."
