If you are reading this you are probably new to the OneReq Slack Community. We&#8217;re excited you are joining us and want you to get the most out of it!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some tips to get you started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Set Up Your Profile<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Building out your Slack profile including what you do (Ex: Technical Recruiting) and the type of company you work for (Ex: Startup)&nbsp;will help other people in the community learn more about you. We also recommend adding a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/slack.com\/help\/articles\/115005506003-Upload-a-profile-photo\">profile photo<\/a> or avatar!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Introduce yourself  to the community<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Head over to <em>#introductions<\/em>. Let people know who you are, what you want to get out of the community AND what you can add to the community. You will notice we give you a head start :).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Join Channels that interest you<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find a full list of channels both public and private <a href=\"http:\/\/onereq.com\/slack#channels\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;Here is a slack article on how to <a href=\"https:\/\/slack.com\/help\/articles\/205239967-Join-a-channel\">Find and join relevant channels<\/a>. You will be automatically added to a few key channels as well to get you started. If you are interested in one of the private channels send a DM to the moderator listed <a href=\"http:\/\/onereq.com\/slack#channels\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modify your notification settings<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>This is an incredibly important part of Slack and can make or break your ability to benefit from the tool.<\/strong>&nbsp;Slack has extremely customizable notification settings. You can get pop-up desktop notifications, emails, nothing at all, or have a personalized set of notifications based on specific channels you\u2019re in or words you\u2019re interested in (called&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/slack.com\/help\/articles\/201398467-Set-up-keyword-notifications\">Highlight words<\/a>). Please check out&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/slack.com\/help\/articles\/201355156-Guide-to-desktop-notifications\">this page<\/a>&nbsp;for more detail info about how to customize your notification settings. If you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed, you probably just need to change your notification settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick Tips<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Requesting New Channels<\/strong><br>If a channel doesn&#8217;t exists but you think it should post it in #general and run a poll. If we receive 30 reactions via emoji an admin will create the channel and set you as the moderator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Invite People To Channels<\/strong> <br>If a channel exists but you think someone else needs to join it, you can invite them by going up to the channel settings menu&nbsp;and clicking the Invite link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Share your feedback<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our community is growing everyday and there&#8217;s a lot more to discover, so explore and let us know how to improve. Please send comments to any of the admins or you can email&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:hi@onereq.com\">hi@onereq.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getting
