HR speaks: How onboarding works at Bonitasoft

Another factor that contributes to a great workplace

by Charlotte Adams, VP of People, Bonitasoft

So we’ve found the perfect candidate for that open post (YOU), we’ve made you an offer and you’ve accepted: congratulations!

So you think our job is done? No, it’s just the beginning! We’re thinking bigger than that. We believe that if you don’t onboard those new employees properly, your great new hires won’t stay.

Why do we consider onboarding so important? It engages employees early on, encourages open communication from the start, enables new employees to be productive faster, and increases employee satisfaction.

Onboarding is the perfect time for a company to showcase its history, culture, values and vision. It should be well planned and thought out.

What do you think? I’d love to hear from you — if you have experienced great onboarding (or not) in other positions when you were new, if you are an HR specialist with professional experience to share. What are your thoughts about onboarding new employees?
