  • {{new_hire_roles}}: The roles or departments for which onboarding is needed.
  • {{program_components}}: The areas to cover (e.g., company culture, policies, job-specific training).
  • {{delivery_format}}: The preferred format (e.g., virtual, in-person, hybrid).

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing context before starting.
  2. Design a detailed onboarding program outline with phases (e.g., pre-boarding, first week, first month, first 90 days).
  3. For each phase, specify the topics to cover, including culture, policies, and job-specific skills.
  4. Incorporate interactive elements such as mentorship, buddy systems, and feedback mechanisms to enhance engagement.

Guardrails

  • Avoid making the program too rigid; suggest flexibility for different roles.
  • Stay within the scope of onboarding; do not include ongoing training unless requested.
