Abstract: Organizational socialization of employees is one of the most important processes of manpower in which new organizational members are informed about organizational values, norms, and behavioral styles. This research, in terms of its purpose, is an applied one; and in terms of implementation method, is a survey with a correlation approach. The population includes 88 experienced managers, vice-presidents and employees of the Parsian Bank in Isfahan city. The data were collected using questionnaires with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient calculated as 0.88, which includes personal data and main, specialized questions for examination of research hypotheses. From 88 distributed questionnaires74 (84%) were returned. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS software programs through statistical tests at descriptive (frequency, percentage, accumulated percentage, average and standard deviation) and inferential (t-test, regression modeling, variance analysis, non- parametric Kolmogorov and Smirnov test, and Freedman non-parametric test) levels. The findings supported all research hypotheses. The results indicated that the Third sub-hypothesis, with a path coefficient of 0.375 is of the highest importance, and that the Sith sub-hypothesis with a path coefficient of 0.075 is of the lowest importance .Indeed, socialization is an instrument by which employees are coordinated with organizational culture. As a result, appropriate socialization of employees leads to more efficiency and effectiveness of employees.
