Structured onboarding plan is key. Day 1, Week 1, Month 1 goals. Schedule intro calls with key team members AND people outside their immediate team. Send company swag pack *before* day one. Makes a huge difference.
overcommunicate expectations clearly document everything have checklists assign small manageable tasks early on so they can get quick wins helps build confidence check in frequently like multiple times first day then daily first week then taper off Dont just throw them in the deep end
Ensure they recieve access to all necessary tools and documentation *before* they officially start. Have their manager personally walk them through the team's workflow and introduce them during a team meeting. It's about making them feel expected and prepared.
The buddy system mentioned earlier is great! We also create a dedicated onboarding channel for the new hire cohort (if multiple start) and their buddies/managers. Its a safe space for questions. And make sure IT setup is FLAWLESS beforehand nothing worse than tech issues day 1.
