5 Tips For Onboarding New Employees

I recently read a study that found 11% of people change their minds after signing an employment offer. There are so many factors that go into that, but how can you help your new hires feel excited and solid in their decision so that they don’t back out before the first day? I’m sharing my top five tips for creating a seamless onboarding process, including how to prepare beforehand and what to do during their introduction week. I share stories of processes that I’ve seen work really well (and some...not so much), and what I recommend for virtual onboarding. 

Listen in to learn more about how to create an efficient and effective onboarding process. 

IN THIS EPISODE, I TALK ABOUT:

• How to give your new hire an opportunity to prepare for their first day 
• My favorite way to kick off the first day and set expectations 
• My recommendation for how often you should be meeting with your new employee during their first week 
• Ideas for getting the company together to introduce the new team member 
• Why I like the employee ‘buddy system’ 
• Tools for getting your training videos, SOPs, and industry information organized before your new employee starts 
• Why you should schedule 30, 60, and 90-day check-in meetings immediately
