Please let me know if this sentence is grammatically correct or not:

''I want to develop my skills in the processes of recruitment and selection, development and evaluation; and compensation and benefits that enable me to contribute positively to organizational and personal growth. ''

@mariaiqbal93,
I think so Maria tho it's not entirely clear whether "development and evaluation" might be a singular skill like "recruitment and selection" or whether "recruitment" might be singular with"selection, development and evaluation" the second unit. You might play with the punctuation

Somehow too I feel the second "and" might be better replaced by "as well as"

@dalehileman,
Thanks for your kind response. They are distinct categories/processes of HRM:

1) Recruitment & Selection
2) Development & Evaluation
3) Compensation & Protection

Is it okay if I put it this way?, ''.. develop my skills in the processes of recruitment and selection, development and evaluation, as well as compensation and benefits that enable me to contribute positively to organizational and personal growth."

Punctuation is too painful!

It sure is, Maria

Before I make the attempt, how does "Compensation and Protection" relate to "compensation and benefits"

I might add a comma, after "benefits." Still hoping to hear from some of the restuvus whose judgment in such matters is often better'n mine

@dalehileman,
Still another possibility, Maria

I want to develop my skills in the processes of recruitment and selection; development and evaluation; and compensation and benefits; enabling me to contribute positively to organizational and personal growth

Tho don't think you need "positively", seems redundant

, its supposedly being

So Rog I disagree. Given the semi, I get the suggestion that the recruitment and the development are somehow fundamentally different from the compensation, that the former two categories might not contribute to growth
