Step 1: <\/strong>To manage the onboarding process for a new employee, navigate to the Onboarding section. Locate the newly added employee and click Start Onboarding to begin setting up the onboarding workflow.

Step 2: <\/strong>Start with the Welcome Message section. Click Edit under the welcome message area and customize the message to warmly introduce the employee to the company.

Step 4: <\/strong>Then move to the Company Documents section. Click the drop-down button beside Company Documents and select documents that the new employee needs to review or acknowledge.

Step 5: <\/strong>In the Additional Document Request section, click Request Additional Document to specify any documents the employee must provide.

Step 7: <\/strong>Proceed to the Reference Request section. In this section, you can request a personal or professional reference letter as part of the employee verification or documentation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 8: <\/strong>After that, move to the Notifications section. Enable the toggle button to notify existing employees about the new hire\u2019s arrival. This notification typically helps the team prepare to welcome and support the new colleague. Once the notification settings are configured, click Save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 9: <\/strong>Finally, review all the onboarding settings and click Send Packet. This action sends the onboarding package to the new employee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
