My best onboarding experience was at a ~300 person company in Munich.
They had an internal Confluence site for every new person, where every part of the onboarding process was transparently visible.
- Who greets, when and where and is the new hire informed.
- Access card handed out
- Introduction of all business units (monthly talks about what every unit does and who's part of it.)
- All accounts set up.
- And more stuff like that.
But hey, if you want to improve your onboarding process, simply start by asking new hirees how they think it went at week 1, month 1 and month 3.
