After you sign your offer letter you will log into EpicEmployee and complete Preboarding. How do you log into Epic Employee Preboarding?
You will receive an email from PeopleConnect@vailresorts.com Pre-Boarding steps include updating personal info, applying for housing, and other required forms.
Log into EpicEmployee during Preboarding by following these steps:
Go to EpicEmployee
Click the Onboarding Login button
Username is the email address where you receive your onboarding emails.
The password can be found in a separate email from peopleconnect@vailresorts.com. You will be asked to change your password the first time you log in. If you can't find that email, don't worry! You can always use the "forgot password" feature on the login page to reset it!
Once you are logged in, look for "My Tasks" in EpicEmployee to complete your preboarding activities. Additionally, you can view your complete onboarding journey by clicking on "My Requests". You will also see a housing task assigned to you to apply for housing.
Trouble Logging In
If you are unable to log in using the credentials given, try resetting your password using the "Forgot Password" option at the bottom of the page
The onboarding portal is most compatible with a computer/laptop rather than a phone
If you are still having issues, try using a different browser - Microsoft Edge is the preferred choice - if that does not work, try Internet Explorer
Password Requirements
When resetting your password, please ensure it includes special characters (!,?,$, ECT) and a capital letter
An example would be Winter24!
Extra Tips and Tricks
The "Forgot Password" option is only valid for 24 hours after the email is sent. If you attempt to access the link after 24 hours, it will produce an error. You will need to try the "Forgot Password" option again for a new link
If you attempt to reset your password 3 times or more within the same day, your account will lock for 24 hours
IT will not be able to reset your password. You will have to reset it yourself via the "Forgot Password" option. If the Forgot Password option fails and several browsers are yielding the same error, please get a screenshot showing the exact error message you are receiving so that People Connect can help troubleshoot.
