New Staff Check List
This check list was created to assist Student Affairs departments in welcoming new staff members to work and life at Northwestern University.
Before The New Staff Member Arrives
Step 1 - Northwestern University Human Resources (Employment Documents)
Prior to the new staff member arriving on campus on the first day, send the new employee the following documents. These can be found on the Human Resources website:
- Personal data form
- I-9 (additional information about e-verify process) **Second section of e-verify must be completed within 3 days of the new hire’s official start date. Assign this task to the person in your department who has been trained in the process.
- W-4
When the personal data form has been completed, it must be submitted in order to authorize the creation of a new staff net id.
Step 2 - Student Affairs Information Technology (New Employee Computer Setup)
Complete the SAIT New Employee On-Boarding Form so that SAIT can begin the process for a computer setup.
Step 3 - Northwestern University Information Technology (Telephone Setup)
Contact NUIT to request a new phone number, update the contact information for the number or order service. Send this information to the new hire. If the new hire will require a work phone, coordinate this with the correct person in the hiring department.
