Why use Guru for new employee onboarding?
There’s no reason to hold up onboarding and training new employees because of crammed trainer schedules. Likewise, there’s no need to dampen new hires’ enthusiasm by taking a half day to complete necessary onboarding checklists and forms, or explaining the many resources they’ll need to do their jobs. Instead, let Guru’s onboarding software streamline your new-hire onboarding process and enhance long-term employee engagement and retention.
Replace your hard-to-update employee handbook. Company policies and job descriptions, team processes and email templates, ongoing training modules and more—you can put it all in Guru.
- Automate onboarding. When you automate all the day-one onboarding paperwork, your new hires can proceed at their own pace and you can lower your costs for administrative support.
- Consolidate company knowledge. Eliminate the confusion of the first week by giving new employees a single place to find all the company knowledge they need to do their jobs—then watch their productivity soar.
- Gain visibility into new hire progress. Guru’s team- and user-level data let managers easily learn if and when a new employee needs help or has questions about something specific during their onboarding.

How to improve employee onboarding with contextual, reinforced learning
Employees are unable to retain 50% of training content within five weeks—forget about applying it. Within 90 days, 84% of what was initially learned is lost. Guru’s HR onboarding software reinforces learning in every application your employees are using, ensuring your teams are learning as they work. With Guru, you can empower employees to onboard at their own pace and in their own tools and workflows.
