How many weeks/months do you all expect a new hire (in industry not consulting) to be relatively up to speed and adding value. I’m 3 weeks into a new job and manager seems to expect expertise already

I’d also say that this “three months” requires a reasonable onboarding process and support.

I worked on industry for majority of my career. If you’re new to the company, 3 months. If you’ve transferred from another department, depending on your learning curve, a little less.

It's all a game of expectations. They can shift their expectations, you just gotta communicate where you are more clearly

To answer your question, though, probably three months to fully grasp it. But only a month to grasp the job.

Good morning!

Still trying to figure out this whole Fishbowl thing, so here goes my first post.

I would love to get into provider credentialing, but all employers I've looked at want at least 3 years of experience. So, I'm looking at Provider Network Coordinator roles, because I'm finding some of those roles don't need AS MUCH experience. I'm a RHIT, and have been working in healthcare for nearly 10 years.

Any input on employers is appreciated!

I was working at a Hotel one night & I saw a man appearing on two different floors, then in the stairwell. The man was in his 70’s or 80’s. He was wearing nothing but tidy whiteys. When he got to the front desk I asked “is everything alright? Are you okay?” (Assuming he may be senile),He wasn’t senile, he went swimming & wanted to make me uncomfortable and started to flirt while in his sopping wet see through tidy whiteys- and of course I had to clean up the water he tracked through the lobby.
