I agree - but make sure you do let them know that it's okay to ask questions. Sometimes newbies might feel bad to ask for help.

I've had someone who recently graduated work in my team, who'd ask help and always apologize a ton of times for disturbing me whilst I had 'more important things to do'. Even though I made it clear quite frequently that I'd rather get disturbed rather than have him be stuck for hours on end.

Sometimes asking for help can make a new employee feel bad or judged and in my opinion, it is part of our responsibility to make sure this is not the case.

(Again, this does not mean to push your help, but just making it clear you are available in case they need you)

And some cultures may not feel they can ask for help.
