Abstract

This paper defines and discusses the importance of knowledge transfer, onboarding content, mentorships, internships, on-the-job training (OJT), job satisfaction, high employee retention and low employee turnover, and job rotation. A new employee’s first few days at a new job can be frightening, embarrassing, and overwhelming. If a new employee is given a bad impression of the company within their first week, the new hire is left rethinking their job decision; and the company’s reputation is at stake for not fostering a welcoming organizational culture. New employees do not need to feel lost, unprepared, apprehensive, or lonely during their first few days of their new job. This paper discusses the importance of employees’ satisfaction with their job and the involvement of job rotation. Additionally, the effect that job satisfaction and job rotation have on employee retention and employee turnover rate is explored. This paper explains the need for onboarding programs, mentorships, and on-the-job training as a way to initiate new hires into the business. The benefits of internships for individuals who are new to the workforce are also posited with the intention that companies will offer more opportunities for them. With a well-organized human resources integration program, the new hires are eased into their new job, and the company benefits from improved ramp-up speed and productivity with the new addition to their workforce. This paper explains the best components of an integration program for new hires as well as the best uses of them to create a productive and satisfied workforce.
