Your First Day
Welcome to Syracuse University!
The Office of Human Resources is here to assist you with your tranisition to your new job. We've included a checklist of items for you to complete in your first month of employment.
Onboarding
Your supervisor will schedule several sessions for you to attend within the first few weeks of your employment. Onboarding will be the first of these sessions and it is your opportunity to complete important paperwork, to discuss your benefits with a Human Resources representative, and to take care of important business before you begin working.
Important Paperwork you will complete during Onboarding
- Employment Eligibility Verification (I-9) - Please bring proper identification with you. Refer to the directions and I-9 form for the list of acceptable documents (as issued by the U.S. Department of Justice).
- W-4 for tax withholding (we will attach a copy of your social security card).
- Demographic Action Notice (DAN) - contains personal demographic and emergency contact information.
We have a number of convenient locations where you may complete your onboarding process. Please call 315-443-4042 (press 1) to schedule an appointment.
On behalf of the Syracuse University community, the Office of Human Resources welcomes you!
