Good for you! (not being sarcastic)
Culture plays a huge role as well. I have seen the environments where existing folks are un-willing to help out new guy. This could be due to lack of time, getting territorial, just-being-jerk, lots of attrition, etc.
The best way to get started is to start writing tests for the team and work your way up. I find this useful for all levels of hire.

Absolutely. It's totally a cultural thing I've been in the opposite situation as well. The culture really has to be that getting someone new onboarded is the most important thing and not somebodies side project.
