New hire orientation is how an organization welcomes a new employee into their company. The purpose of this orientation is for your new hire to feel comfortable and to adjust quickly. The better your onboarding process, the less likely the employee will quit. As a District Manager, one of your KPIs may include employee retention and tenure.
New hire orientation could include safety training, responsibility walk-throughs, job shadowing, employee benefits reviews, introductions to management and co-workers, and an overview of the company culture and history. Essentially, your new hire orientations should include any information required for your new hire's success. Talk to the interviewers about your experience putting together and leading new hire orientations.

"In my management career I have led the new hire orientation for at least 200 employees. I strongly believe that a flawless orientation and onboarding process will greatly increase an employees' desire to stay with their new employer long-term. At my current company, when I first joined, their onboarding process was weak. I took a month to dive into the existing orientation program and revamped the entire approach. I included more information on the company culture, what to expect, and more emphasis on sales training. Now that our new hires feel more comfortable and knowledgable, it has increased our tenure rate by about 18%."
