Let’s talk about how to create a stellar employee onboarding experience! 🚀 Just started on my fourth week here at Mews, and here's what they did right: 1. 👋🏼 Face-to-face introductions (before even starting!): Meeting many of my team members in Amsterdam before starting was a game-changer. In a remote-first global company, it can be daunting to start without having met anyone. They made the most of the fact that a lot of the team would be in one place close to the time I was joining and invited me along. 2. 📆 Synchronised start dates: All new starters begin together, face-to-face, building great relationships with those on the same timeline, and saving the company time on repetitive onboarding sessions. 3. 🫡 Dedicated onboarding days: We had three days solely focused on onboarding without the pressure of immediate work tasks. The whole company knows this and respects it. 4. 🫶Interactive presentations: Leaders presented in person and encouraged questions, creating a safe space for curiosity and open dialogue. (Sorry, I know I asked a lot...) 5. 🎉 Fun and engaging: From evening outings to a scavenger hunt around Prague, it wasn’t all work and no play! These in-person elements set me up for success in a remote-first environment. Starting at Mews, I felt ready to hit the ground running, I understood the company culture, and how Mews works, with some new friends by my side. 🌟 Special thanks to Bethany Silcox Yvonne Williamson Vita Cafnik for all the onboarding support 🙏🏼#OnboardingExcellence #NewBeginnings #RemoteWork #CompanyCulture #MewsLife
Sounds like when we first met :)
Creating exceptional onboarding flows is no easy feat and demands ongoing tweaks and adjustments. I've been hearing for years that Mews excels at it, so I'm not surprised to read you had an amazing experience too! Best of luck in your new role! 🚀
