Onboarding

Employee onboarding software

The welcome kit arrived on Wednesday, the email account on Friday, and nobody told them which floor to go to on day one.

Escal8's onboarding organizes the process by stages, each with its own checklist. You bring the person over from Recruiting, track their progress on a board, and a dashboard tells you how many days each start takes against the target you set.

What it solves

What your HR team gets from digital onboarding

1

No task depends on someone remembering.

Every stage carries its checklist: welcome, signatures, kit, accounts, and training.

2

You know which step each person is on.

The board shows every new hire sorted by stage, with a name and a date.

3

You measure how long each start takes.

The dashboard compares real time against the business-day target you set.

4

Nobody types the data twice.

The person arrives from Recruiting with their profile and their match score.

5

Each site sees its own.

You filter by country and status, and central HR still sees the whole picture.

How it works

How to build an onboarding process in Escal8

  1. 1

    You define the stages.

    You create them, name them, and reorder them by dragging, until they look like your process.

  2. 2

    You build each stage's checklist.

    You add, edit, delete, and reorder the tasks that belong to that stage.

  3. 3

    You bring the person over from Recruiting.

    When you hire them, you send them to onboarding from their profile and they enter the first stage.

  4. 4

    You check off what is done.

    Their card shows the checklist, and you move them along when they finish what is theirs.

  5. 5

    You check the dashboard.

    You see every new hire's progress against your business-day target.

Onboarding checklist, stage by stage

An employee onboarding process in three stages, which is how most companies have it before they complicate it.

  • Document request. Welcome email sent, documents signed, and welcome kit delivered.
  • Training. Accounts created, training videos completed, and the first day in the office announced.
  • Completed. Photos taken and the onboarding survey answered. A stage with active people cannot be deleted, so nobody ends up stranded in a stage that no longer exists.
