- First day was exciting. Start was at 9am till 5pm, got introduced to my Manager(s), A tour of the building was given such things as the canteen, my work area (Floor 1 and 3), Fire Safety checks were introduced and assembly points, car park, toilets and working hours etc
- Like all jobs I was told to bring bank details, previous work pay slips, I was also told that my photo would be taken in order to give me a ID badge
- I was given a password and username for my PC login & assigned a network drive and own folder within the drive area.
- I met with different staff, discussed their roles within the tPCT
- With my job title being Webcasting and E-learning assistant I learned the software and hardware I would be using in order to implement the projects further.
- In the coming weeks of September my assigned work was to get involved with different work within the departments and fit into the surroundings
- In the afternoon I sat down with Mervyn Silva one of two managers to discuss my progress and I typed a document up of what I had learned so far. Not only to give me a insight of the work role but in order for me to get familiar with the software packages the organisation use for instance Microsoft outlook.
- I was given a mini tour of Microsoft outlook as I progressed that day and I had many things to add in my diary.
- I was told there is a stationary cupboard too for any kind of stationary I desire to use.
- For lunch there was a bit too much of a choice; canteen, your own sandwiches or food shops located not far from the NHS.
- I was also given a temporary laptop until I got a new one with a higher specification. This was due to the moving around I would be doing because working on two floors. And a mobile phone in order to keep in contact with my staff and external folks.
The experience so far from the start has been brilliant.
