First day jitters? Not here!
The first day at a new job can be overwhelming, but here at SessionM we will have you set up and ready to go! Your desk (whether you choose stand-up or sit-down) will be outfitted with a laptop and SessionM swag (stickers, t-shirts, tumblers and coffee mugs). If you start on a Monday, you’ll be greeted by our catered breakfast (could be bagels, could be breakfast burritos, either way… it’s delicious)!
We pride ourselves on having thoughtful People & Culture, Talent Acquisition, and IT teams who are ready to assist you with all of your first-day needs. Here’s how you’ll spend the day:
Self-starters wanted!
A typical question a new-hire might have is, what does the training look like at SessionM? Our platform is innovative, complex, and making a huge impact in the market. So, how do you learn the specifics about what SessionM does and how we do it?
Our general new hire training occurs once a quarter with all new hires who have started since the last session. Along with your new colleagues, you’ll sit down with various senior leaders, to learn about key areas of the business including the company vision, our sales pitch and detailed product training.
In addition, depending on the team you are joining, there may be other more structured or team specific training. For smaller teams or newly defined roles, leaders identify key people around the organization for the new hire to meet relative to their role to provide more on-the-job training. SessionM is chock-full of self-starters, and those with entrepreneurial spirit. You will find yourself learning, collaborating and growing in a constantly evolving tech company.
If you find yourself thinking, this is the exact next challenge I’ve been looking for, I compel you to take a look at our job openings, and to reach out directly to our Talent Acquisition team for further discussion!
