“Organizational Entry” Book Chapter in the Handbook of Organizational Communication Theory and Research

My handbook chapter on “Organizational Entry Processes” with Michael Kramer, Scott Shank, and Vernon Miller is now published in the handbook of Organizational Communication Theory and Research. In the chapter, we review scholarly work in the areas of vocational socialization, anticipatory organizational socialization including recruitment and interview processes, organizational entry and encounter, role-making processes, and entry experiences of nontraditional newcomers. In addition to reviewing scholarship in each of these areas, we also offer suggestions for future research that I hope to investigate someday, such as studying “retiree’s” work and children’s anticipatory socialization from parents working remotely.
