By the end of your first month, you should be familiar with a majority of staff in your area and have a solid awareness of the mission of the operation, and the current goals of the workplace. In addition, you should be knowledgeable of CSUN’s mission and the campus' priorities.
During your first week, begin to get to know each member of the "team" you will be working with. Familiarize yourself with written policies and pay attention to the culture of how things are done, explore what resources are available to you to get the information and tools required for your job. Knowing who to go to, or where to find information, or how things are typically carried out, will help build your productivity as you find yourself becoming more comfortable in the workplace.
