Creating a good onboarding experience is no longer a good-to-have, it's rather a necessity. It includes making the new employees feel welcome and comfortable in their new surroundings and assuring them that they made a good decision. It also minimizes the time it takes to become productive members of their new workgroup.
The proper onboarding process can generate an exponential increase in the productivity of a team. Over time, this translates to job satisfaction, higher performance, lower stress, and organizational commitment.
Why should we use an onboarding survey?
- To understand what the employee thinks about the company.
- Gauge if the new employee understands their role and is well-equipped to fulfil their primary responsibility.
- Understand the alignment between the individual’s expectations and the organization’s expectations of the employee.
- It is also crucial for improving the company’s retention rate and the productivity and satisfaction of new employees.
- The employee onboarding survey is also one of the most powerful tools for collecting feedback on the onboarding process and filling in gaps, if any.
- An onboarding survey is bidirectional. In addition to understanding the new hire’s feedback, the survey also tells the new hires what the company thinks is important.
The story behind the questions
If you're new at the company, answering the same questions as everyone else can be challenging because you are new. To help you in the onboarding process, we've created brand-new questionnaires for new employees. Our new onboarding questions have been carefully researched and selected based on current standards. Furthermore, we use questions that have been tested in HR environments and have a proven track record of giving the most value to you as a manager.
How does it work?
We've made it super easy for you, all you need to do is create a Custom survey and pick a template. With employee attributes, you can specify recipients that have worked for less than one month. Voilà, our survey engine will automatically send surveys to all new employees.
