Discover the best strategies to welcome and onboard your new employees to the remote workforce of your organization.

Recruitment is a high-priced and time-consuming procedure. After the right candidates have been selected for the job, specific measures need to be put in place to induct and onboard them as quickly and efficiently as possible. This evidently upholds the necessity for a well-structured and equally well-executed corporate induction and onboarding training program to make sure that new employees are not disenchanted. Notably, it should help enhance the positive image of the organization.

The conventional face-to-face method to provide induction and onboarding programs is typically the method most organizations opt for. This is highly impactful, and the human touch goes a long way in aiding new employees to learn the organization culture, its value proposition, and how they can contribute effectively.

However, given that COVID-19 has led to changed workplace dynamics, organizations must consider moving the face-to-face induction and onboarding programs to a virtual mode.
