Determine whether or not you believe there is a way to  balance them. Provide two suggestions on how this could be done. Support  your position.Respond to this post. (RA) There  are several ways in which a mentor program and new employee orientation  can assist employees with their career development, understand their  existing level of skills and the path of their career to reach to the  desired level of the skills. In my current position, we have a mentor  program that last for the first three months of a person’s time on the  job. During that period, they are paired with a seasoned peer that is  responsible for some on the job training as well as aiding them with  navigating the corporate culture.This  is important because it aids in helping a new employee feel a part of  the organization. Employees who feel a part of the organization often  feel more passionate about their work. Another  reason a new employee orientation is important is because it introduces  employees to corporate policies and procedure. Policies and procedures  are basically the rules that an organization abides by. Often times,  being able to introduce these at the onset of employment help an  employee to understand what role they play in the organization, and also  give insight into the organizational culture. One last reason employee  orientation and mentor ship is important is it helps new employees to  become well versed in their jobs. By providing training in the first few  months’ employment, companies can better equip with the skills they  need to do their job effectively. It  is difficult to get all the things in one job and if we get all the  things in one job, again it would be difficult to get all these things  at desired level. But we can have balance in all these things by making  one order as per priority. For example: we need to decide that what is  more important for us. It can be money, satisfaction or work life  balance. But this order may be different for every one as per their  need. But a good clarity should be there in this order; it will  determine its level of importance. Secondly, if we want to achieve all  these things, it is important that we should work hard dedicatedly  without losing our moral and ethical values for achievement of the  position, power, money and satisfaction in the professional and personal  life.2.   Go to the Society for Human Resource Management’s (SHRM) Website and review the information regarding HR certifications.
