Intake & onboarding

Employee onboarding

Collect what HR and IT need from a new hire before day one: personal details, emergency contact, start date and team, equipment, sizes and a photo ID, posted to the people team's channel.

The Employee onboarding template, as a respondent sees it

What is in the form

Page 1: About you

  • Legal first name
  • Legal last name
  • Preferred name, if different
  • Pronouns
  • Date of birth (date)
  • Mobile
  • Personal email
  • Home address (address)
  • Emergency contact
  • Their phone

Page 2: Your role and setup

  • Start date (date)
  • Department (dropdown)
  • Job title
  • Your manager
  • Where will you mostly work? (one of 3)
  • Laptop (one of 3)
  • What else do you need at your desk or at home? (pick any)
  • T-shirt size (dropdown)
  • Dietary needs, for the welcome lunch
  • Photo ID (file upload)
  • Anything else we should know before you start? (long answer)

It opens with a welcome screen (“Welcome aboard”) and ends with a thank-you message you can edit.

After someone submits

A Slack post. Every submission is posted to #people-ops, so the team sees it where they already work.

The workflow comes with the form, switched off until you fill in the blanks: Slack needs your workspace connected once.
