SKILLFUL Talent 103: Selection and Onboarding
 
In order to accomplish company’s hiring goals, hiring managers are tempted to select and onboard new hires as fast as possible. This approach often results in a “sink or swim” mentality for onboarding. All too often, organizations rely on outdated checklists to onboard new employees. These processes use a one-size-fits-all approach and make it more difficult for new hires to get up to speed.
 
When you focus your onboarding on the new hire’s skills, you are able to concentrate on any gaps they may have. This customized, structured onboarding approach was found to increase the likelihood that a new hire will stay for three years by 69% according to the SHRM Foundation.
