Subject: New
Sarah,
This week I decided to get organized and figure out the new-hire training schedule. I thought you might be eager to know your schedule
and how training is conducted. Your training will begin next week, starting on Monday.
You will begin by meeting our human resources manager. She will show you a PowerPoint presentation on our retirement plan and
health benefits. You will then meet with the vice president of sales. You will conclude your training on Wednesday by attending a
welcome lunch with your department. Do you bowl? If so, we have a company bowling league that you should check out.
You will have a busy week of training.
Thanks,
Dean
