According to Glassdoor, it takes $4,000 and 24 days to hire a new worker. With this investment, organizations should be providing an onboarding experience that protects their investment. In this study we’ll start with pre-boarding, we’ll learn more about orientation, and we’ll explore what resources and tools organizations use to help onboard.

Key findings include:

  • 29 percent said the talent development department was primarily responsible for onboarding strategy
  • 78 percent measured the effectiveness of their onboarding program
  • 35 percent formally checked in with new employees at the end of their first day
  • 57 percent preboarded all new employees
  • 25 percent required managers to undergo training on how to onboard their new employees
     

 

Primary Capability Covered: Talent Strategy and Management

Participation in this event, either live or recorded, can be reported for one (1) professional development point toward initial certification eligibility or recertification requirements for the APTD or CPTD credential.
