• What kind of training do new hires receive?

  At AD Mortgage, we don’t just hire for the job you have; we train for the career you want. Our onboarding is a dual-phase experience:

  • Phase 1: The Mortgage Basics Intensive – You’ll start with a "back-to-school" week often called "Mortgage College" by some of our ADvocates. Led by Learning & Development professionals with decades of industry and academic experience, this week-long immersion gives you a university-grade foundation in lending logic and market fundamentals.
    
    
  • Phase 2: In-Department Mentorship – After the classroom, you aren't left to figure it out alone. You’ll be paired with an experienced mentor within your specific department. This guidance ensures you can apply your new knowledge to real-world scenarios, giving you a safe and supported environment to grow from a student into a top-performing ADvocate.

• What should I expect on my first day?

  On your first day at AD Mortgage, you can anticipate a structured and welcoming onboarding experience designed to integrate you smoothly into the company. Here’s what you might expect:

  • Welcome Package: Upon arrival, you’ll receive an AD Mortgage welcome kit at your workstation, which includes essential items to help you get started.
  • Orientation Session: A comprehensive overview of the company’s mission, values, and operational procedures will be provided, ensuring you understand AD Mortgage’s goals and your role within the organization.
  • Workstation Setup: Your workspace will be fully equipped with the necessary tools and technology, allowing you to begin your responsibilities without delay.
  • Team Introductions: You'll have the opportunity to meet your colleagues and key team members, fostering a collaborative and supportive work environment.​
  • Mentorship Assignment: To aid in your professional development, you may be paired with a mentor who will guide you through your initial period at the company.

• How does AD Mortgage support work-life balance?

  We believe that peak performance requires intentional recovery. Rather than just "encouraging" balance, we provide the digital and physical tools to help you protect your time:

  • Digital Boundaries: We utilize Microsoft Viva to help you automate your "Quiet Time." This ensures that Teams and Outlook notifications are muted outside of your working hours, allowing you to fully disconnect.
  • Workflow Efficiency: To prevent the "after-hours scramble," some of our teams use Microsoft Loop to keep projects organized and collaborative in real-time. By staying productive during the day, you can leave work at the office.
  • Physical Wellness: We promote a healthy lifestyle as the foundation of focus. Our team members have access to our on-site gym facilities, making it easy to integrate wellness into your daily routine without the stress of a commute.
