Each week, the new hire's manager reviews the new hire's progress during a scheduled 1:1 meeting. If a new hire is not progressing or completing certain deliverables within the allotted time, the manager calls out and notates those items during the 1:1 with the new hire with specific timeframes. and/or deadlines. For example, the new hire will independently complete a strong demo of all three Ellevation products by 60-90 days.
