Your first working day and the days after this

First Day on the Job

We gather at the reception. You will receive your access badge and meet other new joiners. Your morning program will consist of:

 

  • NewPeople on Tour: office tour (@Heerlen or @Amsterdam depending on your office location)
  • IT for collection and setup of laptop & iPhone

  • Presentation Digital Security
  • Workshop APG (HR)-systems 

  • End of program / lunch and introduction within your own team

 

Your first 100 days you get to know APG at 3 levels.

 

  1.  New people @APG is the central onboarding program
  2. Depending on the business unit you work in, additional events may be organized to show you the ropes. For instance, Asset Management (AM) will invite you to an onboarding presentation.
  3. Your direct colleagues and your manager are the most important people during your first period. Most teams have a buddy system. 

 

E-learnings  

You will receive an e-mail from the HR Service Desk in your first week containing a hyperlink to an intranet page where you'll find practical information to find your way. You will also receive an invitation for several e-learnings, including:

  1. An e-learning about the APG Strategy, and how you can contribute to stay on track.
  2. E-learning about ICT Security
  3. APG Ambassador: about your and APG's online reputation 

Coffee 

It's an important question. How’s the coffee? We have coffee machines at our offices where you can collect different types of coffee as well as tea, soup, and hot chocolate. You can also buy coffee freshly prepared by the barista and just how you like it. You can find the barista in the central hall in Heerlen and in the Atrium in Amsterdam. You can only pay with a bank card. 

  

 

Lunch 

Our offices have a business restaurant with a wide choice of hot and cold lunch dishes. APG wants to have climate-neutral business operations by 2030, and this is also reflected in the restaurant's range, which is largely plant-based. And again, you can only pay with your bank card.
