People who have recently arrived at a place, joined a group, or started a new activity for the first time.
From Old English 'new' and 'cuman' (to come), combined as 'newcomer' in Middle English. The word simply means someone who arrived recently. The plural 'newcomers' has been used for centuries.
Research shows that newcomers often bring fresh ideas that established members dismiss—but studies prove that diverse teams with newcomers actually solve problems faster and more creatively than homogeneous groups!
