00:01.080 --> 00:03.543
I've had the opportunity to work with multiple employers

00:03.871 --> 00:06.129
during my 15 years in the pharmaceutical industry

00:06.500 --> 00:08.754
but I can honestly say that the onboarding process

00:08.755 --> 00:09.971
at Parexel is unprecedented.

00:10.600 --> 00:12.395
I think part of the reason it's so successful

00:12.396 --> 00:14.829
is because of the mentoring program that they've established.

00:15.971 --> 00:17.914
The mentoring program pairs a new hire

00:18.357 --> 00:19.800
with a senior member of their team

00:20.043 --> 00:21.577
and the senior member walks the new hire

00:21.578 --> 00:23.457
through all aspects of their on-the-job training.

00:24.080 --> 00:25.902
They introduce them to the strategic partnership

00:25.903 --> 00:27.296
they're going to be part of or the clients

00:27.297 --> 00:29.286
that they are predominantly going to be doing business with.

00:29.971 --> 00:32.167
They also introduce them to administrative tasks

00:32.168 --> 00:33.540
that are required for the job

00:33.570 --> 00:36.129
such as setting up their timesheet or their out of office.

00:36.730 --> 00:38.529
All of this empowers the new hire

00:38.829 --> 00:40.529
and sets them up for tremendous success

00:40.914 --> 00:41.643
by giving them the tools

00:41.644 --> 00:43.743
and confidence they need to excel at their job.

00:44.429 --> 00:46.886
I feel very fortunate to have been part of the mentoring program

00:46.887 --> 00:48.266
when I first joined Parexel.

00:48.557 --> 00:51.120
And feel very privileged to now be a mentor for new hires!
