Additional Program Logistics/FAQs:
How will the pairings be made?
Pairings should be from outside of new employee’s immediate team, and preferably from outside of their division
Efforts will be made to pair new employees with a peer guide at the same or similar job level
If possible, we may look to pair complementary personalities or those with similar interests, but this is not the focus of the peer pairings.
Who should apply to become a peer guide?
All types of employees, regardless of experience should be represented in the program and we encourage junior-level staff through directors to apply.
What is the Hiring Manager role in this?
Hiring managers will participate in a short conversation with a Peer Onboarding work group member or HR representative to get more details in order for the team to make a match with a peer guide.
What’s the benefit for the Peer Guide
Volunteer Peer Guides should include their involvement in this program as an Engagement Goal for ACHIEVE check-ins. They also have the opportunity to get a perspective from outside the organization on their work that provides depth and diversity to their experience.
