First 3 Months on the Job

Some of us might be adjusting to a new technical writing job; some might be helping colleagues adjust. Even those who have been in a job for years can learn from taking a moment to reflect on how things have changed. Let's discuss the first 3 months in a tech writing job!

• What about this topic interests you? Are you searching for a job, new to a job, or helping others who are new?
• What did you do in the first 3 months of a current or past tech writing job?
• Was there an onboarding program? If yes, what was it like? If not, how did you get oriented to the job and the organization?
• Were you surprised by anything?
• If you’ve been in your job for a while, how have things changed since you were new?
• Have you helped to train a new colleague? What did you do?
