Why ask questions during Onboarding?
In many companies where resources are limited, once the offer is signed there is little done afterward. Hiring managers and people teams can often miss the opportunity to roll out the red carpet and truly make a new hire feel welcome.
Asking the right questions during onboarding gathers vital feedback, so you can make tweaks for the next new hire. It helps you understand how else you can empower new hires’ performance and cultural integration. And it surfaces any issues before they become engagement drains and turnover risk factors.
