SUMMARY:Successful Onboarding to an Engineering Team
DESCRIPTION:Onboarding at Contrast\n=======================\n\nHiring is ha
 rd for many reasons\, and one of those is bringing aboard the people you'v
 e worked so diligently to recruit to your organization. This talk details 
 how to build a self improving onboarding system for your Cloud team. At Co
 ntrast Security we:\n\n1. Realize that engineers manage their work in tick
 ets\, not calendar items\n2. Acknowledge that our new folks have competing
  interests in their first few weeks with HR and Compliance\n3. Learned tha
 t the very best people to improve onboarding are those going through it.\n
 4. Benefit from knowing that in 6 to 8 weeks our new hires will be product
 ive and reliable members of the team who provide their expert input where 
 it can have the best impact.\n\nBoyd will give you a full look behind the 
 curtain for what we do and why we do it. Including a careful description o
 f setting up and operating a continuous improvement loop.\n\nBonus Discuss
 ion\n=================\n\nPaul has posed the question: What are the differ
 ences between onboarding to a company/team vs. an open source project.\n\n
 Let's talk this one through as most of us have team mates who will contrib
 ute small fixes\, bug reports\, etc to OSS.\n\nHeck\, maybe this should be
  part of our Onboarding at Contrast!\n\nhttps://www.devopschat.co/meetings
