Company Overview
Troy Clogg Landscape Associates isn’t your average landscaping company. We’re a $20M+ multi-entity operation based in Wixom, Michigan — running TCLA, Bedard Tree Care, Great Deal Products (home of the legendary Hot Pink De-Icer), and Hot Pink Helpers, our 501(c)(3) nonprofit supporting families fighting cancer and financial hardship at the same time. We build stuff, grow stuff, plow stuff, and give back — loudly and with purpose.
Our people are our engine. We’re growing fast, and we need an HR Generalist who can keep up with that energy, speak to our crew in their language — literally — and help us build the kind of culture people actually want to come to work for.
Job Summary
This is not a file-cabinet HR job. You’ll sit inside the Human Resources department reporting directly to the Chief Talent Officer, touching every part of the employee experience — from the day someone applies to the day they hit their 10-year anniversary. You’ll be the bridge between leadership and our bilingual workforce, the keeper of culture, and the person who makes sure people feel seen, supported, and set up to grow.
Part-time or full-time — we’re flexible. What we’re not flexible on: you showing up with heart, hustle, and fluent Spanish.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding HR Generalist Jobs
Document your HR credentials before applying
Gather your degree transcripts, any SHRM or HRCI certifications, and past employment verifications before contacting employers. H-2B visa petitions move quickly once a labor certification is approved, and gaps in your credential packet can delay or derail the I-129 filing.
Target resort and hospitality employers with recurring H-2B petitions
Resorts, ski areas, and large seasonal event venues regularly sponsor H-2B workers across departments, including HR. These employers have established DOL relationships and internal processes, making them far more likely to sponsor an HR Generalist than a company filing for the first time.
Search verified H-2B employer listings on Migrate Mate
Use Migrate Mate to find HR Generalist roles at employers with documented H-2B filing history. Filtering by employers who've sponsored before cuts out the back-and-forth of educating a hiring manager about the visa process from scratch.
Time your applications around the DOL cap filing windows
The 33,000 summer-half H-2B visas open October 1 and the winter-half opens April 1. DOL typically receives more petitions than available slots within days of each opening, so confirm your employer is ready to file on the first eligible date, not weeks later.
Verify your employer understands the prevailing wage requirement
Before accepting an offer, ask whether the employer has already run the OFLC Wage Search for HR Generalist roles in their county. If they haven't, the DOL labor certification will require it, and a wage lower than the prevailing rate will need to be corrected before the petition advances.
Use O*NET to align your experience with the petition's job duties
The O*NET occupation profile for HR Generalists defines the core tasks USCIS expects in H-2B petitions. Cross-check your resume against those listed duties so your application reflects the standardized role description, reducing the risk of a Request for Evidence on your qualifications.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find HR Generalist jobs with H-2B visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is the recommended starting point for finding HR Generalist positions at employers with verified H-2B filing history. Because H-2B sponsorship requires the employer to have already filed a DOL labor certification for the role, focusing on employers with documented seasonal hiring patterns significantly improves your chances of a successful sponsorship outcome.
How does the H-2B annual cap affect HR Generalist applicants?
The H-2B program issues a maximum of 66,000 visas per fiscal year, split into two 33,000-visa allotments for the winter and summer seasons. Cap numbers frequently fill within days of each half-year opening, so employers must file your I-129 petition as early as 90 days before your start date. Late filings risk running into an exhausted cap, leaving you without a visa even if the petition is otherwise approvable.
Can an HR Generalist role qualify as a temporary position for H-2B purposes?
Yes, but the employer must demonstrate to DOL that the HR need is genuinely temporary and tied to a seasonal peak, a one-time event, or an intermittent surge in workforce activity. A resort hiring an HR Generalist to manage onboarding for 300 seasonal staff over a summer season is a strong example. Ongoing, year-round HR operations do not qualify.
What documents should I have ready when an employer begins my H-2B petition?
You'll need a valid passport with at least six months of validity beyond your intended stay, educational transcripts or degree certificates, any HR professional certifications, and employment verification letters from past roles. If your degree is from outside the U.S., a credential evaluation may be required. Having these documents organized before your employer files the I-129 with USCIS prevents delays once the labor certification is approved.
