  • Do organizations tend to have a formal or non-formal process?
  • How important, given today’s tight job market, is it to have a formalized on boarding process? 
  • What expectations should be set for the new hire and for the hiring manager?
  • I’ve been hearing a lot about  “blue chip” on boarding tactics- Can you give me some examples? 
  • Does onboarding look different for a seasoned new hire compared to a new hire directly out of college?
  • Where do organizations tend to fail during the on boarding process?
