Webinar Details

Is your hiring and onboarding process costing you unnecessarily? Did you know

  • Nearly 1/3 of people are job searching within six months of employment?
  • Almost 1/3 of externally hired executives miss expectations in the first two years?
  • With 10-15% annual attrition, companies lose about 60% of their entire talent base within four years?

Introducing an on boarding program into your hiring process can mean the difference between retaining top employees or watching them walk out the door after several months. Companies that implement an effective on boarding program during the first three months of the new hire employment experience will have 31% less turnover than those who don’t according to the Aberdeen Group. 
Onboarding is important because it introduces the employee to the company’s culture and expectations and gives the employee a vital training and information needed to succeed in their new position. Also, a new hire’s compatibility or culture fit will likely be determined during the onboarding process. This can save the employer from a prolonged investment into the wrong person.  
A strategic onboarding plan can dramatically impact your business. Investing in an onboarding process will help reduce turnover and increase new hire effectiveness. An onboarding program isn’t just a routine checklist; it should be a comprehensive process that makes the new employee as well as the company confident they made the right choice and confident they can succeed in their new job. What does yours do? And do you even have an onboarding program?
