EMPLOYEE enrollment steps

STEP 1: SIGN YOUR EMPLOYEE AGREEMENT.

Watch your email for your Employee Agreement, coming from Luella Krautkramer, our Administrative Project Manager. Review it, print and sign the signature page, scan or take a picture, and sent it back to Luella.

STEP 2: SIGN THE EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK

Print the appropriate handbook for you, and sign both the Employee Handbook Acknowledgement and Receipt page AND the Employee Acknowledgement and Receipt of Harassment Policy Page. Scan or take a picture, and sent it back to Luella.

STEP 3: bio, Headshot, & Birthday

Biography: Please write a brief biography for yourself so you can be added to the Sequoia website. Check out the examples on our About page.

Headshot: If you have a professional headshot already, send along the file(s) to Luella. If not, please take a headshot yourself following these guidelines:

Lighting: Natural lighting is best, but not direct sunlight. Avoid harsh shadows.
Background: A plain background is best, but this can be edited, so don’t worry if you do not have a plain white wall available.
Position: Try to get a couple angles; one where your shoulders are square with the camera, and one where your shoulders are at a 45 degree angle, but your face is turned square with the camera. Be sure to get a shot from your chest up.
Camera angle: Be straight on, not angling down or up at your face.
Clothing: A solid dark color is best, or any Sequoia apparel.
Expression: Remember to smile!
Crop: Do not cut off the top of your head.
Additional tips: Check out the photos on our About page to see examples!

Birthday: We like to celebrate you on your birthday! Send your birthday to Luella as well.

STEP 4: SEQUOIA APPAREL

Choose your Sequoia branded clothes. Sequoia will purchase either the jacket or the sweatshirt for you and another shirt of your choice, OR two shirts for you if you don’t want the sweatshirt. Send your apparel choices and your size to Luella, along with your shipping address.

STEP 5: SEQUOIA NAME TAG
