Adding inexperienced automation tester into Automation experts team

I wonder how an inexperienced automation tester (may have manual testing experience) with programming knowledge but no hands-on in creating frameworks are added to the team of experts in an organisation? Nowadays, most of the companies are trying to switch testing from manual procedures to automation and expect a candidate to at least have basic programming skills to be hired as an automation tester on junior/graduate level. How a junior tester is integrated into the team and what tasks he might expect to work on as he joins the company. What challenges he could face while working in a team of experts?

Thanks!
