Preboarding

Prepare new hires before they walk through the door.

Before Day One

The period between offer acceptance and a new hire's first day.

Like a cruise ship passenger manifest.

Imagine the employee as a passenger on a cruise ship. The offer letter is their ticket.

Once their ticket is 'purchased,' it's time to prepare for their arrival: add them to the passenger manifest, prepare accommodations, and curate an itinerary. Similarly, the preboarding process focuses on paperwork, provisioning, background checks, and welcome communications.

Thoughtfully curated.

Use the preboarding period to set expectations and cultivate a sense of belonging. Slipstream can walk the candidate through necessary information they'll need for their first day — transit instructions, documents to bring, introductions, and more.

Access to Slipstream's chat interface means employees are supported with any questions they have leading up to their first day.

Curate your workflow.

Tasks are intelligently surfaced from the preboarding workflow, so employees only see what's relevant. Slipstream proactively follows up on outstanding tasks, ensuring new hires arrive ready for day one.
