GitGuardian, a rapidly expanding startup, prioritizes effective onboarding to ensure new hires succeed from the outset. Alexis, an Account Executive who joined during a significant growth phase in August 2020, provides insight into this process. He faced the challenge of quickly ramping up his understanding of GitGuardian's technical products and the ecosystem to support the company's expanding business, especially after the release of a new product. Despite the challenges posed by remote work during COVID-19, Alexis found the onboarding process exciting and supportive, with ample resources and a collaborative company culture that helped him acclimate quickly. The company's product-oriented approach and the willingness of colleagues to help were instrumental in his rapid adaptation, allowing him to sign his first deals within three months. His aspirations include enhancing his technical knowledge to better understand client needs and maintain GitGuardian's strong industry reputation.
