Team Recruitment & Onboarding: general communication 2026

Hi @reef-recruitment , would it be an idea to already plan presentations after the summer break

? So that the dates can already be mentioned everywhere (socials, website, Habitat & participation, Samenhuizen)? Of course the message to potential new reefligs remains that they should react asap in order to increase their chances of still finding a unit in the Reef…

hi liesbet,

we have a R&O meeting beginning of July, we will do an evaluation of the presentations we did in Q2 of this year, and will decide on next presentations.at that point.
I personally don’t think it’s so usefull to communicate already about it now as I have the impression that people registering for an event months in advance, show up less (but might be wrong about that).
I also think that it forces peoples a bit to go to the presentations planned now, if they are really interested.
But leave it to the rest of R&O to correct me or complete.

hi @reef-recruitment some time ago, I took a break from your team, but I would be happy to join again, if you need extra hands. Let me know!

(I just won’t be able to attend your next meeting on 9 July since I have holidays that week)

That would be fantastic @mieke - then I can go on a break without dimishing the team :wink: I can still attend the meeting of 9 July and then retreat.

We looked at the data about this phenomenon, and it’s true: most people who show up are those who registered just before they signed up. I also second the argument of giving an incentive to come to a presentation as soon as possible.

Hello @reef-recruitment,

I see that there are quite some data left from Chantal, Hannah & Jeroen and other members who are no longer in The Reef. When you have a moment, can you please have a look at our onboarding documents and delete these data? TIA!

If then you would be willing to take it one step further, you could also have a look at one of the onboarding administration manuals, where it speaks about permanently deleting data to circumvent the version control function. That would be a nice-to-have, so no pressure.

next r&o meeting 27/08

Hello @reef-recruitment,

As I was updating the decision log, I came across the proposal on adapting the recruitment process (Login – Nextcloud). Re-reading that proposal - the title alone saying “Adapting recruitment till we have clarity on the left over units” - it seems to me that we collectively got confused about the end term of this proposal. So my intention with this message is to clarify this so that we get a shared understanding, and also to flag that if you see a need to propose a new policy again, that this would of course be possible.

hi @Lee

My understanding is that it goes beyond. ‘till we have clarity on the left over units’, but i leave the rest of R&O react.
We organized the new presentations in lign with this proposal. We will evaluate after the upcoming 4 presentations, how to proceed.

Hello Team R&O,

Giving some further thought to the onboarding challenge, I was thinking of this IT webinar that we never organised, but which may still be useful and/or appreciated by some.

The outline is here: Webinar: "The 27 mysteries of The Reef's IT" - 22/11/2022 at 7 pm - #8 by Lee

Would you possibly be willing to see whether there is interest to follow it and if yes, somebody who would be willing to give it?

And while we’re at it, maybe also consider the SoFA intro course? It’s 5-6 videos of about 15 minutes. Maybe we can organise an afternoon to watch them together with those who are interested?

No problem to launch a poll to see if there is any interest, and if so, get it organised…

Good afternoon,
@reef-full
With the latest AM application, we have reached a number of 3 households interested in the same unit - the 1BR.
According to the proposal from last year, we put a hold on new applications for this unit for now - new requests will be put on a waiting list. @reef-external - not sure if something need to be done on your side (website or ad to update?).
