We have newbies build a sample app with our general tech, in case they're not familiar with the environment. We may have hired them thinking they can get up to speed soon enough. If they're already super familiar, they'll breeze through it, and if not it gives them a playground to make simple mistakes in.
We then get them working on refactoring issues primarily until the right feature opportunity comes up for them.
That's tech stuff.
We also have a ready-to-go Trello board with a lot of things they might have to know, and we have some docs about the members of our own team and our various communication styles.
For example, I sometimes get lost in my work, but I don't mind being bothered. Just because I seem engrossed, I still want you to give me the heads up if you need anything. Others have different little quirks and it's nice to say what we know about each person.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
