- A poor employee onboarding experience - reflected in a low NPS score

The Outcome
Automote More Of The Process
The client’s team, with our help, built a new guided workflow that led new hires through the onboarding process in a linear fashion. This greatly reduced errors and delays in getting them started and led to less time on their first day on administrative tasks – with all updates automatically pushed to their HRIS.
Even better? If someone was stuck, HR knew where thanks to status updates, allowing them to triage and proactively reach out when needed.
Improved Employee Onboarding
NPS scores have doubled, a reflection of improved experiences that have scaled across their enterprise. Happier employees = higher first-year retention, which has reduced the burden on TA to backfill roles they already had.
Real HR Time Savings
A decrease in time spent on onboarding by 25% for the entire department has led to opportunities to enhance other parts of the business, such as employee experience (a core pillar), offboarding, and retention.
Flexible Software That Scales
With modern workflows and pre-built templates as a starting point, this client’s team is fully operational … without needing IT tickets for changes, even as they build more transitions into the Click Boarding platform, such as more focus on preboarding, offboarding, and internal mobility. And when they run into an issue, they have our best-in-class support team ready to help.
