What is the onboarding process like at Drift and how long does it last?

Orientation is 1 day, and it is hands down the best onboarding experience I have ever had. And this is my 17th job. You get a short presentation Q/A with a lot of Senior management people, often including CEO, CTO, CFO. On day one you are given a 1/7/30 plan by your manager that outlines what your goals are for your first day, your first week and your first month. After that, you are in the deep end and expected to figure out how you can add value. Mind you everyone on the team (aka the entire staff is there to support you and do whatever they can to make sure you succeed.) Really. Kind of amazing. #notnormal

Fast and impressive. My first day on the job was in a classroom-like setting with different lesson plans from the girl that builds our product, the CEO and CTO, and led by the Director of Learning. I was in awe of how much I learned and how much they expected from me on Day 1. I should also mention that even with 3 offices they send every new hire to HQ in Boston for 2 weeks!
