ONBOARDING YOUR NEW HIRES

A good onboarding process is crucial when hiring for several reasons:

​

It sets the tone for the employee's experience: The onboarding process is the new employee's first impression of the company. If it's disorganised or unhelpful, the employee may feel undervalued or unsure of their role. A positive and welcoming onboarding experience can make a new employee feel appreciated and motivated to contribute to the company.

​

It helps the employee understand their role: Onboarding provides new employees with an overview of the company's mission, vision, and values, as well as the expectations for their role. A thorough onboarding process can help employees understand how their role fits into the bigger picture and what is expected of them in their job.

​

It helps the employee feel connected: Onboarding can help new employees feel connected to the company culture and the people they will be working with. It's an opportunity to introduce them to their colleagues, give them a tour of the office, and explain the company's history and culture.

​

It can increase productivity and reduce turnover: When employees feel welcomed and supported from the start, they are more likely to be productive and engaged in their work. A good onboarding process can also help to reduce turnover rates by making new employees feel comfortable and confident in their new position.

​

Overall, a good onboarding process is essential for creating a positive and productive work environment for new hires. It helps to set expectations, build relationships, and establish a sense of belonging in the company.
