Getting started in style
In most locations, most new team members go through a video-based orientation on the first day in the store and then are taken through station training by their manager. In some markets, orientation takes place in groups at a centrally located facility. At our corporate office, orientation is scheduled every Monday, and new team members are taken through a day of interaction with various people from across the organization.
