Once a candidate is recruited remotely, how do you perfect the Onboarding process?
HR Personnel needs to ensure that he or she is given an introduction to company culture, values and standards, and the team through a video conference. Culture fit is first and foremost, even when working remotely.

Recruiting managers can create online courses and assessments for the candidate to complete as part of their online training. As an administrator, the hiring manager can add the reference material for the candidate to refer to before sitting for the online assessment. These online assessments could be mandatory based on company values and standards they expect the employee to adhere to. Other online-based courses could be related to job performance, mainly for a senior position.
The hiring manager can evaluate the candidate’s fit through their ability to adapt to the culture and their scores on the assessment. If the candidate passes the bar raiser of expectations, he or she is a suitable fit for the job.
