Why the Onboarding Process Determines Whether You Can Retain New Hires
According to research from SHRM, hiring a single employee costs $4,700 and takes an average of 36 days. Lever ATS helps you find and hire the best talent, but the clock starts ticking as soon as they accept their offer and sign their contract.
That’s because 70% of employees believe the onboarding process makes or breaks a new hire’s experience, according to a recent survey from Paychex. Moreover, 80% of employees who feel they had a poor onboarding experience plan on leaving. On the other hand, streamlined onboarding improves new hire retention, time to productivity, and overall productivity as illustrated below:
The stakes are clear: Your onboarding process will either platform your employees for long-term success or the time and money invested in hiring them will follow them out the door.
How Manual HR and IT Onboarding Sets Up New Hires for First-Day Failure
Successful onboarding starts and often ends with Identity Governance and Administration (IGA). You need to complete these IT onboarding tasks in your IGA solution before a new hire even begins working:
Create an IdP employee profile and email address.
Place the IdP employee profile in your GAL and org chart.
Assign group memberships and privileges based on role, department, or location.
Set up SSO, MFA, and provision third-party application access.
Allocate workspace, resources, and assets.
Send a welcome email to the new hire and their manager or team.
But before any of that can happen, HR needs to create a new hire’s profile in the HCM or Payroll system. That happens alongside background checks, tax documents, and other new hire paperwork. It can take hours or days for HR to complete their onboarding process for just one employee, let alone tens or hundreds.
This is where most onboarding processes go wrong: By the time IT can even begin their onboarding process, there’s simply not enough time to manually create and provision the new hire’s identity profile and hardware. New hires then must spend their first day on the job chasing IT around just to get the system access they need, and the clock hits midnight on their first impression.
HR and IT teams are only getting smaller, and their pile of administrative tasks grows by the day. But this situation can be easily avoided thanks to Hire2Retire’s ATS integrations and automated onboarding software.
