# Checklist ### **Work Space** * [ ] Order appropriate access and make sure they work. * [ ] Arrange for access to common drives. * [ ] Add their name to relevant email lists. * [ ] Give them details about any remote working allowances. ### **General communications** * [ ] Share the news about the new starter with everyone in the business so everyone’s ready for their introduction. It’s a good idea to share something personal about your new hires such as their love of coffee or their favorite football team. In this way, other employees have something they can use to break the ice with them when they meet. * [ ] Assign a buddy or mentor the new hire can rely on to show them the ropes and answer their questions. * [ ] HR: it is important to have contact at least every two days with the candidate to see how he/she is adapting to the company and if he/she has any doubts/problems that we can solve. ### **First day** * [ ] Give them a virtual tour of company’s departments and introduce them to key team members. * [ ] Meet with them and their manager to explain the expectations of their role. The new starter needs to know what they’re supposed to be doing, and how that contributes to the company's bottom line. * [ ] Have their manager assign any simple tasks. ### **First week** * [ ] Introduce them to employees from different areas of the business and have them shadow them so they can experience the business from many different aspects. * [ ] Meet to check they’ve accessed, read, and acknowledged the company policies. * [ ] Have their manager assign them their first project. ### **First month** * [ ] Hold regular check-in meetings and evaluate their progress after a month in the company. * [ ] See how they’re getting along with the rest of the team and whether they’re enjoying their work. * [ ] Assess and action training needs. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
