How to Make Sure Your New Hire Stays for the Long Haul
Knowing what your new hires are looking for during the onboarding process can make all the difference.

The onboarding process can be just as scary and nerve-wracking for existing employees as it is for the new person coming into the office. Do you have everything the newbie will need? How will it reflect your skills and abilities if the person doesn’t learn everything you were supposed to teach? How can you tell if he or she is comfortable?

The bad news is, there’s lots of room for improvement in the onboarding process: In fact, 31% of people have quit a job in the first six months. The good news? The infographic below explains everything you need to know about making sure a new employee is fully prepped, ready to start being productive, and excited to stay for the long haul.
