Orientation When you start employment with our firm, we assign you an "orientation advisor." This advisor is responsible for helping you have a smooth transition into our firm. They will show you around the office, introduce you to our people, help familiarize you with our firm's policies and procedures and arrange for you to be trained on the various technologies we use in the firm. They will be available to answer any of your questions and assist you during your first few weeks with the firm.

You should keep your mentor informed of any problems or concerns as they arise. The mentor treats all interactions and discussions in confidence, and there is no evaluation or assessment of you on the part of the mentor, only supportive guidance and constructive feedback Continuing Professional Education Hugh Scott is a registered CPE provider in New Jersey and New York, and offers its professionals over 40 hours of firm-paid CPE per year.
