About

HRTimes magazine was first published in May 2007 in Maine as the state’s hyper-local trade publication for HR professionals and employers. HRTimes is published in partnership with each state’s SHRM State Council. The mission of HRTimes is to keep local professionals connected with each state’s resources, ever changing employment regulations and regulations to support the human resource profession as a whole.

HRTimes is a project through the parent organization, Employment Times LLC . For over 10 years, Employment Times has been a staple in the Maine and New Hampshire employment communities providing resources to job seekers, and services to employers to attract quality talent using print advertisement and Web presence. Through connections with various Chambers of Commerce, the Society for Human Resources Management (SHRM), state career centers, colleges, universities and State programs, Employment Times provides information on job openings, job fairs, educational opportunities, State employment services, networking and career advancement workshops, and how-to advice articles, free to the public, on newsstands and online.

In March 2009, Employment Times merged with Sun Media Group (parent company of The Lewiston Sun Journal and 11 other leading local, weekly Maine newspapers) and launched MyJobWave.com. With an understanding that a superior career-enhancement tool and recruitment platform is needed, these well-respected companies partnered in order to provide employers and job seekers in Maine and New Hampshire print and online outlets.

HRTimes is also a partner with New England Law Publishers to present the Annual Maine Human Resource Convention and the Annual Maine Workers’ Compensation Summit.
