Open discussion: talk about your first week. How was the technical setup? How did the first meetings go? Any nice, or not anticipated surprises?

Let's talk about company culture. Pick a value/mission/vision from your company and chat about how you've already experienced this in the first week (even if you haven't it's fine and discuss this)

How much social interaction is there usually work?

What was your first impression of the CEO/Founder?

Is there anything that's unclear/unresolved?
