Very interested in understanding best practices for remote onboarding. I've read through things like the gitlab handbook. What have been your positive experiences and exercises for starting a position remotely? What has surprised you as being valuable? do you begin to socially network with employees in a remote environment?
Regarding social interactions while remote, check out the informal communication page: https://about.gitlab.com/company/culture/all-remote/informal...
I've started to do lightning interviews with GitLab team members to give insights on questions like these. Our first few snapshot interviews are in the remote playlist on the GitLab Unfiltered YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL05JrBw4t0Kq7QUX-Ux5f...
