Common Questions About This HR Team Site
What is this HR team site built with?
The site is built entirely with standard SharePoint web parts – Document Library, Editorial, Events, News, Organization Chart, Quick Links, and Text – combined with a custom theme, custom fonts, and flexible sections that give the page its layout. There is no custom code and no third-party tools anywhere on the site. This is the kind of clean, maintainable team site Greg Zelfond builds for HR departments.
What’s included on the HR team site?
The site features a news section for team updates and announcements, a team calendar surfacing HR initiatives, training sessions, and key dates, centralized links to HR systems and vendor portals, a countdown timer highlighting upcoming milestones, a shared document library built for active collaboration and version control, and an organization chart showing roles and reporting lines. Because it is a private team site, confidential HR work stays visible to HR personnel only.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. Everything you see is built with out-of-the-box SharePoint – no custom code, no third-party add-ons. That matters because out-of-the-box sites are stable, secure, and easy to maintain, and nothing breaks when Microsoft rolls out updates. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg Zelfond builds, which keeps the site dependable for years without ongoing developer costs.
Can this design be customized for our HR team?
Absolutely. The colors, fonts, logo, and section layout are all tailored to your organization’s brand. Greg adapts the quick links to the HR systems your team actually uses – your HRIS, payroll, benefits, and recruiting platforms – shapes the calendar around your training and review cycles, and structures the document library to match the way your team organizes its files.
What is the difference between this team site and an HR department landing page?
An HR department landing page serves the whole organization – it is where employees go to find benefits information, policies, and forms. This team site is the opposite: a private workspace just for the HR team itself, where staff collaborate on initiatives, deadlines, and confidential documents away from the employee-facing portal. Many organizations Greg works with end up with both, each serving a different audience.
Can Greg build this HR team site for our organization?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds out-of-the-box team sites like this one for HR teams, tailored to your brand, your tools, and the way your team works.
