Onboarding is an important piece of the hiring process, and one that more and more leaders are working to improve in their organizations. Onboarding starts before the first day and carries on to the job offer, new hire documentation, training and goal setting for performance management.

Working remotely is fast becoming the new norm. In 2015, 37 percent of US workers said they had telecommuted, representing a huge increase from the 9 percent who said the same in 1995.

While the employee onboarding process should instill confidence in new hires, it goes beyond warm fuzzies. You and your team are preparing the new employee for the reality of the job. Give them the wrong idea about your company or their position, and you will see a quickly exiting or disengaged hire. Aside from the critical steps of the employee onboarding process , your team should be using your company culture and values to inspire a unique experience.

I remember moving to Australia back in 2005, looking forward to starting afresh after five full-on years of London living, to meeting, mixing and mingling in a new culture. Scratching around for a meaningful job I accidentally ended up securing a role in recruitment. I wasn’t entirely sure why Hays seemed so convinced I’d make a good recruiter, but after my first couple of days at work I realised: I was pretty much a blueprint for what used to work for them back then.
