Easier e-Recruitment Processes: Onboarding

Once the recruitment process has been completed (and it will be much faster with relevant recruitment software), an effective process for the engagement of employees needs to take place. This is significantly improved by an e-recruitment software system.

Onboarding is the process of integrating new employees into an organisation. It begins roughly two weeks prior to the commencement of work and can extend six months to a year, depending on the organisation. The current language to describe its three key components focuses on integration, induction and immersion.

The three ‘I’s of Onboarding:

Integration

Integration refers to the collection and processing of new employee data. It is often segmented into several phases such as the completion of common forms like the Tax file number declaration and Choice of Superannuation Fund, the collection of data based on company-unique requirements, contingency hiring to allow background checks, and processing post hire data like insurance and benefits requirements. E-recruitment coordinates this process for you, making sure integration is achieved swiftly and completely.

Induction

Induction is all about getting newly hired employees up to full productivity as quickly as possible so that they can do the job for which they were hired. This includes setting up computers, phones, email accounts, workstations and coordinating all of these activities in unison. Again e-Recruitment streamlines this process.

Immersion

Immersion (also known as orientation) has to do with making new employees feel like they are a part of the team. It is about immersion into the corporate culture; learning about policies and expectations, building relationships and providing feedback to the new employee on how they are doing.

Automation of onboarding is still in its infancy. Some recruitment software packages such as TurboRecruit Corporate are able to support onboarding processes. Efforts to define and improve onboarding are IT efforts to provide automated solutions that can better facilitate the multi-faceted processes that surround it. The constant innovation at the heart of RecruitAdvantage ensures that emerging onboarding support technologies will be included in our products as they develop.
