How to thrive in the first 90 days at your job

About this session

Starting a new job is an exciting time in your professional journey. Still, even exciting endeavors can bring on stress and first-day (or first-month!) jitters. So what can you do to set yourself up for success?

GoTo’s Sr. Talent Development Specialist, Ashley Packard, will join us to discuss what the first few weeks can look like in a new role and what you can do to get acclimated as quickly as possible. Ashley developed and manages GoTo’s global onboarding program for new hires, so she knows a thing or two about how to settle in with purpose.

Get ready to take away:

  • The prep you should do before your start date
  • What to expect in the first 30/60/90 days and beyond
  • How to communicate with your new manager
  • Tips to understand role expectations and set goals
  • Resources to navigate any new role
