Meeting other CISI Colleagues

These meetings may be phased over the first month of employment, and the manager should decide which are relevant and the priority depending on job level of the new employee and their interaction with other colleagues and teams. Priority meetings should take place in the first week.

Wherever possible please arrange for the new starter(s) to see ET/ Department Managers (outside of your department) at the same time as other new people, which may mean delaying to co-ordinating diaries.

Similarly, if you are asked to see a new starter, see if there are other new starters you can invite to the same meeting.
