What is Onboarding?

Onboarding is the process of integrating a new employee into an organization and familiarizing them with company culture, policies, and procedures. It usually involves a series of steps, such as orientation, training, completing paperwork, and meeting with various departments and teams. The goal of onboarding is to make the new hire feel welcome, informed, and prepared to do their job effectively. Onboarding can also help the employee understand their role and responsibilities, build relationships with colleagues, and feel more connected to the company. Effective onboarding can lead to improved employee engagement, retention, and performance.
