Onboarding surveys operate continuously throughout the year to provide an ongoing stream of critical information about these early experiences. Typically deployed in short, rapid sequence, e.g., 30-, 60-, and 90-days, these surveys are part of a broader employee listening strategy to enhance the overall employee experience and organizational performance. The insights gleaned through onboarding surveys help you lose fewer, and gain more, of the right kind of employees, accelerate their “ramp up” time and secure their future engagement.
