Office of Human Resources

The Office of Human Resources provides a comprehensive onboarding experience for all new, full-time permanent and temporary staff employees. Our program is designed to introduce new employees to the 4 Cs at App State:

• Culture – Campus-wide expectations, customs, rituals and values. In other words, our “personality” and what it’s like to work here.
• Clarification – Job training, departmental onboarding and setting individual goals and performance expectations with your manager using monthly checklists.
• Connection – Developing professional relationships, networking, exploring the campus and getting involved in the community.
• Compliance – The laws, rules, policies and values all Mountaineers must know and apply on the job.

We are honored that you have decided to join the App State community.  We have included a step-by-step guide to aid with your transition so that you will know what to expect as you onboard to App State.

Step 1: Before you start, complete all New Employee Activation paperwork

• Log In to the PeopleAdmin Module to review, sign, and approve all employment forms. All new employees will receive an email with login instructions.
