Onboarding is more than paperwork – it’s your new team member’s organizational socialization to the Trojan culture and to your school or unit. When welcoming a new or transferring employee, be sure to re-familiarize yourself with the following materials to help create a smooth transition for them and any others on your team.

  • The Onboarding page on the Employee Gateway hosts step-by-step guides for new hires before they arrive, during their first few days, and in their first few months at USC. Encourage your new team members to utilize these lists.
  • The Onboarding Playbook for Supervisors is a blueprint for you to follow during the first three months of your new hire’s employment. Review it and follow the checklists to make sure you set your new team member up for success.
  • The student employee information page on the Employee Gateway houses information specific to student workers. This is a useful resource for you and your student employee.

If you have additional questions about the onboarding process at USC, contact the HR Service Center or reach out to your division’s HR Contact.
