Overview:
Is your hiring and onboarding process costing you unnecessarily? Did you know
· Nearly 1/3 of people
are job searching within six months of employment
· Almost 1/3 of externally hired executives miss expectations in the first two years
· With 10-15% annual attrition, companies lose about 60% of their entire talent base within four years.
Introducing an
onboarding program into your hiring process can mean the difference between
retaining top employees or watching them walk out the door after several months
or even weeks. Companies who implement an effective onboarding program during
the first three months of the new hire employment experience, will experience a
50% greater retention; a 54% increase in productivity; and a 59% higher
engagement than those who don’t according to the Aberdeen Group.
