Onboarding brochure with Novamag

An onboarding brochure that welcomes new colleagues before their first day

Between signing the contract and the first working day there are often weeks in which new hires hear nothing from the company. The digital onboarding brochure closes that gap: welcome, team, the first 100 days, tools and contacts in one issue, sent by link and readable on a phone. A countdown ticks down to the start date, and every change is instantly up to date for everyone.

Anticipation, not silenceA welcome, the team and a countdown before the first working day.
Always currentUpdate contacts, processes and tools without printing a new welcome pack.

Knowledge

Onboarding brochure goes digital: what’s behind it

What is a digital onboarding brochure?

A digital onboarding brochure is a welcome pack for new employees published as a web publication. It covers the company, the team, the first working days, tools and contacts. New colleagues open it by link on their phone, even before their first day at work.

Why preboarding decides retention

The time between accepting an offer and starting is decisive for retention. Anyone who hears nothing in this phase starts to doubt the decision or takes another offer. An onboarding brochure that introduces the team, lays out the first days and speaks to people personally builds anticipation and gives orientation.

What belongs in an onboarding brochure?

A welcome from the management, history and values, the team with photos, the schedule for the first days and the first 100 days, tools and logins, benefits, contacts and practical notes such as directions and working hours.

How do I create an onboarding brochure with Novamag?
