Assign a mentor

Assign a mentor to the new employee so they can follow existing projects and learn the company’s best practices. This step should take at least a few days to a week.

Begin work

After following a colleague for a while, the new employee should start working on their first tasks. They can confirm their approach with their manager or project Lead and colleagues to make sure they are following the company’s best practices.To learn more about our project lifecycle and each role’s responsibility, please refer to the Agile & Scrum page.

Performance review

The Director of Engineering will request weekly reports on the new employee’s progress from other managers, mentors, and colleagues. These reports must be added to the new employee’s profile in the company’s HR system. All of these reports are taken into account during the new employee’s probation performance review.
