Onboarding
Laying the foundation for employee success
Ever wonder why employees quit after less than a year? Or why some new hires come up to speed faster than others?
Onboarding is a critical part of a good talent management strategy, but it is one of the least mature talent processes.
As a result, onboarding often doesn’t have the positive impact that it could. Piles of paperwork, missed details, and
busy managers often make a poor first impression on the new employees and increase ramp time.
Studies show that more than 80 percent of new employees
decide whether or not to stay with a company within the
first year of being hired. An unorganized or incomplete
onboarding process can cause those employees to rethink
their decision to join the company just when they would be
the most enthusiastic.

SuccessFactors Onboarding has a comprehensive
approach that can help
SuccessFactors Onboarding, part of the SuccessFactors
HCM Suite, takes a fresh approach to onboarding.
Through a process that is easy, automatic, and personal,
SuccessFactors Onboarding improves first-year retention
and reduces ramp time by focusing on three key areas:
•t Guiding HR, the hiring manager, and the new hire
through the steps of the onboarding process to create
a consistent and complete process every time
•t Connecting new hires with the right people and relevant
content immediately, creating early engagement and
ultimately improving retention
•t Developing new hires quickly by seamlessly connecting
onboarding to the other talent processes—such as
recruiting, goal setting, and learning—and turning new
hires into productive employees in record time

Improving efficiency and compliance through
better guidance
You’ve optimized your recruiting process, you’ve worked
hard on your employment brand, and you’ve successfully
attracted and hired the best talent. But you might be
seriously undermining those efforts if your onboarding
process isn’t working. Studies show that of all the people
involved in the onboarding process, the hiring manager
has the greatest impact on new hires. Yet, hiring managers often are the least engaged. They may think onboarding is HR’s job. They may just be too busy, or they’re
traveling when the new employee starts. Either way, the
process will automatically go better when specific
guidance for hiring managers makes bringing a new
employee onboard practically foolproof.
With SuccessFactors Onboarding, step-by-step wizards
walk hiring managers through the process of how to
prepare before the first day, and an easy-to-use dashboard
makes it simple to track progress along the way. Corporate
and legal compliance improves because all the paperwork
and steps are built right into the process, so there is no
question about which forms were e-signed and where
they landed.
