Accepting a new job is exciting, but it can also lead to questions such as, “did I do the right thing?”, “am I going to like working there?” or “I wonder if the people are going to be nice?”. These are all valid feelings when waiting for the first day to arrive.
It is recommended that employers take the time to contact the new hire prior to day one – to confirm their interest in the new employee starting and to provide some information that demonstrates the leader is prepared and ready for their arrival.
This Sample: Welcome Aboard Email to New Employee from Hiring Manager will assist leaders to craft a succesful welcome email.
It is also recommended that a senior person in the business (e.g. CEO or General Manager) sends an email to welcome them aboard. It is a low-cost activity that speaks volumes to the culture of a business and how they treat the people within it.
Further resources can be found in the HR Resource Centre’s Attracting, Recruiting & Onboarding Talent topic.
