Now Sending Emails on Wednesdays As Well!
October 1, 2015
Don't hesitate to turn in those enrollment forms early, as we will now send an additional Welcome Center invitation 4 days prior (Wednesday) on top of the existing Thursday emails (10 days prior and 3 days prior) and Tuesday email (5 days prior). This should help new hires complete required pre-work steps prior to orientation, including watching benefits videos regarding their benefits and setting up their SUNet ID and Two-Step Authentication.
