New Staff Employees
We want to get you started on the right foot.
That's why the Office of Human Resources has put together a half-day program to orient you to the University. We are here to provide you with the tools you need to succeed at Pitt, and answer any questions you have as you begin your new career.
Orientation is also a great opportunity to meet new staff from other areas of the University, hear information about the University's policies, procedures, perks and services, and to ensure that you have selected the payroll and benefits options that work best for you.
Please note that orientation is held at 8:30am each Monday in Craig Hall, which is at 200 S. Craig Street. A continental breakfast will be served, and you must schedule your orientation session in advance with a Recruiter. If you require a disability accomodation, please contact us at 412-624-8150.
