Remote Onboarding Ideas For 2023

2. Remote Onboarding Ideas for 2023 In addition to the traditional information sharing via meetings and training that takes place during onboarding, there are some more creative ways to make the process smoother, more effective, and more fun. Follow the key remote onboarding ideas to onboard the employees in a hassle-free manner.

3. Send a New Hire Gift After your new hire accepts the offer, don't go silent. Set the right tone by sending your new employee a welcome gift to their residence. Have this gift arrive a day or two before their first day. Creating a customized package makes them feel welcome and excited to start.

4. Create an Online Resource Database • This tip applies to your company's ongoing operational processes and will help every employee, especially new remote employees. When an employee has a question, they may not know who to turn to for the answer. • When they have an online database, they can search for the answer without bothering anyone else.

5. Assign A Workplace Buddy • Starting a new job is nerve-wracking for many people. When you're working remotely, that only exacerbates the potential feelings of loneliness and exhaustion. • Assigning your new hire a buddy who's been at your company for at least a year will give them someone to lean on when they have questions and turn to for help.

6. Have a Virtual Welcome Party & Give a Virtual Tour • One of the best ways to welcome new employees is to host a virtual welcome party. If you have a small company, invite the entire team to attend. • Depending on the size of your organization, you might only invite the team members with whom your new employee will work closely, keeping the attendance limited to about a dozen. A smaller group makes it easier for participants to talk during the virtual call.
