It’s PA and Tech vs non tech specific

Generally first week is generic onboarding and then weeks 2-5 differ a lot

What role?

Had my 1day today and it was umm uneventful, didn’t talk to my team at all just did a few paperwork e signing things… is that normal?

Orientation is a bit of a mess TBH. It was same for me and cried appointment took almost a week.
