Hiring is one of the biggest challenges for Student Affairs. Once you identify the right candidate, you (the hiring manager) need to ensure you set them up for success!
Helping your new employee through their initial steps to join our Student Affairs team will help you build a rapport with them and develop a working relationship.
Upon receipt of the signed offer letter, SuccessFactors will auto-generate emails to the candidate for pre-employment checks (e.g. background checks, transcript submission (if applicable), etc.).
Once these steps have been completed, the new hire will be issued links for reviewing the employee handbook, receive a DukeID (net id), email address and link to apply for a Duke ID card.
Reaching out to your new hire to check in on them during the process will make them feel at ease, while you confirm their work space, access/keys and perhaps guiding them to parking services if needed.Often a departmental or division-wide communication about their arrival is helpful.
Duke Human Resources has supplemental materials to further support your candidate’s smooth transition to Duke and Student Affairs. And, some managers might have more detailed on-boarding lists unique to their department or operation.
On their first day, be prepared to meet them and guide them to their work area. Show them the rest rooms, lounge areas, stairs/elevators and other things about the building they might need to know. Make co-worker introductions and perhaps assign a work buddy for training and questions during the first month or two. It might be helpful to review covid protocols with a new hire to ensure they understand university safety guidelines.
As the division gears up with the return of students, let a new staff member know they will be invited to a quarterly Student Affairs New Employee Orientation.
