Best Practices for Onboarding
✔ Implement the basics prior to the first day on the job. ✔ Make the first day on the job special. ✔ Use formal orientation programs. ✔ Develop a written onboarding plan. ✔ Make onboarding participatory. ✔ Ensure that the program is monitored over time. ✔ Use milestones, such as 30, 60, 90 and 120 days on the job—and up to one year post-organizational
entry—to check in on employee progress. ✔ Include key stakeholder meetings as part of the program. ✔ Be crystal clear with new employees in terms of:
• Objectives. • Timelines.• Roles.• Responsibilities

Microsoft, which has an entire HR team devoted to keeping their onboarding program up-to-date, came up with these wonderfully simple rules :

• Peer mentors provide “safe havens” for new employees to ask questions, gain knowledge and explore the culture
• “everyone’s job”—not just HR’s
• Team members play a critical role in providing support, knowledge and a welcoming climate
