Answer to Question 1

Answer: New employees should feel welcome and at ease. New employees should understand the organization in a broad sense including its past, present, culture, and vision for the future. They should be clear about what is expected in terms of work and behavior. They should have begun the socialization process into the firm's way of doing things. Directly after orientation, training should begin. Training means giving new or current employees the skills they need to perform their jobs.
