  • How long it takes for new hires to become productive.
  • The percentage of employees completing training.
  • Retention rates of new hires.
  • Feedback from managers on new hire performance.
  • Employee satisfaction with the onboarding experience.

It also categorizes your results as High, Moderate, or Low efficiency, and offers tailored recommendations for improvement.

  • Time to Productivity: Days it takes for a new hire to fully contribute.
  • Training Completion Rate: Percentage of new hires who finish training.
  • New Hire Retention Rate: Percentage of employees retained after three months.
  • Manager Feedback Score: A 1-to-5 rating of new hire performance quality.
