If you are recruiting, hiring or on-boarding new staff, the Office of Organization Effectiveness has created two new resources to help:
Recruiting & Hiring Staff for Stimulus-funded Positions http://www.med.upenn.edu/hr/stimulus.html
If you need to hire – and want to do it quickly and successfully – this site can help. Created in conjunction with Oforie Murray of Penn’s Human Resources Satellite Office at the SOM, this site gives you tips and direct contact information of people who can help you in the process.
SOM Central http://www.med.upenn.edu/oe/somcentral
“I wish I had known some of this sooner!” This is a common longing new staff members express at the SOM’s New Staff Orientation program, regarding some of the information they learn there.
By sending your incoming staff members a link to the new SOM Central site, you can make sure they have the urgent information they need to quickly become acclimated to the SOM. It gives them a heads-up on:
• Transportation
• Parking
• Campus Maps
• Security
• Location of ATMS
• How to sign up for New Staff Orientation
• …and More!
Send the link to new staff before they come or as soon as they arrive. In addition, you yourself can use SOM Central:
• To download and customize the Departmental Orientation Templates (in the “New Staff” sidebar to the right) as a handy guide for orienting new staff to your department.
• As a reference tool for your own use. (It’s not just for new staff!)
