The first impression of a new hire of a company is how the company goes forward with the onboarding process. A crucial step in the onboarding process is announcing the new hire to the rest of the employees. In the world of remote work, this usually takes place in the form of a new hire announcement mail.
During this step of the onboarding process, the new hire gets a chance to grasp what kind of culture the organization practices and if they will be able to fit in it. This is also a great opportunity for them to get to know their colleagues and make themselves more comfortable.
Here is a New Hire Announcement Mail template that could help you curate an impressive mail to send out to your employees.
