Frequently Asked Questions

Why is onboarding important?

On average, companies have just 44 days to influence a new hire’s long-term retention. BambooHR helps you train new hires, build enthusiasm, and set the stage for a long and happy working relationship.

How does self-onboarding work?

Candidate information from your BambooHR ATS will automatically populate parts of the “Add Employee” form. Just fill in any remaining details to complete their profile and select the documents you'd like them to sign. Then, invite them to self-onboard. BambooHR will send them an email so they can e-sign their new hire paperwork, like W-4s, and get started with your team.

Is onboarding software necessary for my company?

Onboarding software benefits organizations of all sizes. Our solution is user-friendly, saves time, syncs your data, and tracks employee progress throughout their tenure.
