Here's why onboarding programmes are not 'one size fits all'.

So, you've got yourself a great onboarding programme. Hopefully. Your new employees are welcomed to their new roles and made to feel loved as much as they did throughout the recruitment process. But not all employees are the same. They do different roles with different notice periods. Some will be long term, some short term, full time, part time, temporary, contractors, holiday hires and everything in between. How can you give a consistently good experience to this diverse range of new starters?

And when does your onboarding actually start? Do you wait until the first day of employment? Perhaps a week before? Do you start as soon as the offer is accepted? You've invested a lot of time and energy into securing the best candidate possible, but so often there's a huge drop off in engagement between acceptance and start date. That's where doubt can creep in for new starters in waiting. You know that candidates have been active on the market and they'll still be getting opportunities sent to them. Who in your team can spare the time to interact with new starters, when they've got more candidates to line up, interviews to arrange and offers to process? The answer is almost certainly no-one.

That's where we come in. No two requirements are the same, so we build your onboarding experience just how you want it. In one platform, we can cater for permanent employees, contractors, temporary resources and any other type of new starter you need to engage with. Need someone to get up to speed quickly because they're only working for two weeks and starting tomorrow? We can help. Got a cohort of graduates starting next year and you don't have the time to keep them engaged in the interim? We can help. Do you have staff on long term leave and you want to keep them informed of what's going on and give them some training whilst they're off? We can do that too. All in one platform.

We've brought our experience in communications, recruitment, training and elearning together to create an unbeatable combination. Because we understand these elements separately, and together, we're able to quickly grasp what's needed. You can manage multiple streams and types of new starter in one place, track them through the process, keep them engaged and make them feel loved from the moment they accept the role to the day they start and beyond. One size does not fit all, but now you can offer tailored onboarding experiences in one place.

If you've always wanted to use onboarding to reduce fall out from the recruitment process, to reduce the 'time to competency' for employees and realise a return on investment more quickly, or you simply just want to offer a consistently good experience to all new starters, then let's talk.
