Hello,

Working remotely makes it harder for the newcomer to meet his new colleagues, but it’s also the case the other way around.

A few months ago, I’ve started asking newcomers to make a short presentation video touching on the following points:

·         Who you are

·         Where you come from (nationality, home country)

·         Previous work or professional profile

·         What position you will have and as of when

·         Motivation to join the team

·         Any other personal info you’d like to share (hobbies, interest, anecdotes)

Colleagues really appreciate it, and it prompts them to send an email to the newcomer and have a chat.
