Change in a company happens; change is a natural element of running a company. Being able to easily transition and assist new employees into the organization is an important part of the company. Onboarding is the way that new employees will gain the knowledge or skills needed to complete their job. This is essential for all level of employees - from interns to your new VP. Everyone needs to get settled into the company and know how to perform their jobs well.
Being a team player and knowledgeable enough to provide adequate training will be a full-time job. There are steps you need to take to make sure that the first day and first week of any new employee is successful. We suggest a few of the best practices to follow when onboarding new employees.
Onboarding Tricks To prepare for the first day of new hire orientation, there are a few basic questions to ask. How many individuals will you be hiring today? How many will be attending the training? If there are overlaps in the departments, can I do breakout groups? What paperwork is required of all new hires? What training is important? Being able to answer a few of the basic questions that arise during the first days is important. Not only for your team internally but for the new hire. In addition, there are several things you need to round up:
Take for example, a resident screening software company, focusing on the customer service division of the company. Not only does your new applicant need to be able to communicate well with customers, but they also need to be able to problem solve, manage stress, and clearly understand their role.
Be sure to outline these basic job expectations during the hiring process:
Follow a Few Simple Rules Live and work by the simple guides from onboarding experts. They have set out a list of commandments that can enable success and stability for your company. Part of having employees stay is having them feel a sense of purpose at their job. Enable them to feel this way by showing them what they do, why they do it, and what difference that makes in the lives of others.
Short-term Trial Period: giving yourself a 90 day grace period before things become permanent will help you ensure you made the right choice. Testing Before Signing: before you sign the offer letter, you can always set them up at a computer in the office to test their skills, abilities, or get more details about their skills.
Second, write them out a plan or schedule. Not just during the first week is it important to have direction on the job. Being able to provide clear outlines of weekly or monthly goals will enable the employee to be successful and meet your needs.
Next, do not neglect to introduce them to the office. No matter the size of your company, it is important for everyone to be acquainted with the new face. Being able to meet everyone will also help your employee start creating a network and eventually making friends. And what would work be if you hated everyone you worked with?
* Prepare their workstation and stock with needed items, like a computer. * Deliver the HR paperwork to the employee or HR. * Schedule meetings and trainings to get them familiar with what you do. * Schedule one-on-one meetings to get updates and feedback * Bring them into the culture and ensure their success by introducing them around.
It's a lot easier to weed out problem employees before you hire them, as opposed to finding out you have to fire them after they've already received a few paychecks.
