Facilitate weekly new hire sessions, manage logistics and calendars, present agenda portions, and gather feedback for continuous improvement. Serve as a friendly first point of contact for pre-start and first-week questions.

Maintain accurate contractor records and status at every stage.

Handle basic immigration questions from employees, candidates, and recruiters, escalating complex matters appropriately. Maintain accurate immigration records and calendar key deadlines.
