Context you provide
- {{company_info}}: Basic facts about your company (culture, values, mission, history).
- {{job_title}}: The role the new hire is starting.
- {{onboarding_steps}}: Any specific steps or tasks you want covered (e.g., forms, platform access, meetings).
Instructions
- Ask for company info, job title, and any specific onboarding steps if not provided.
- Create a step-by-step onboarding guide that covers: forms and paperwork, platform navigation, culture and values, and team integration.

- Keep instructions generic enough to apply to common tools and platforms.
- Focus on the onboarding process, not on specific HR policies.
Example Company info: tech startup with remote culture; job title: Software Engineer; steps: complete HR forms, set up Slack, meet team.
