Onboarding of a new employee

Remember the relief of having someone to turn to on your first day on the job? Assigning a mentor or buddy can help new employees adapt easily. This person can help them ask questions, get support and learn about the company culture. A strong bond with a mentor can greatly reduce feelings of isolation. Assign an experienced employee to introduce the company and all processes; set a goal for them to befriend the new person. Competent onboarding is based on human friendships and then on responsibilities and control systems.

Be honest
Be honest with the employee about the stages of supervision and responsibilities. Tell them about the rules and about real situations. Be sure to tell him if you are going to monitor his calls or working hours.
Set the rules in advance

Imagine playing a game without knowing the rules. Frustrating, isn’t it? Remote employees need clarity on job expectations, performance metrics and communication norms. Schedule one-on-one or team meetings to discuss goals, responsibilities and career opportunities from the start.
Encourage integration into the team. Talk about traditions within the company.
Creating bonds remotely can be challenging. With employees scattered in different locations, how do you foster a sense of belonging? Encourage virtual team-building events, group projects, and casual conversations. Platforms like Slack and Zoom can be powerful tools for engagement beyond work tasks.
Supervise the employee regularly. Gentle supervision that is done systematically and from the very first day on the job saves a lot of time and monetary resources!
Ask for feedback.
It is also important to warn at once that there is no possibility to change EVERYTHING to the way a person wants it…. The fact that the manager is at least interested and tries to create a strategy of cooperation works here! Regular meetings-through video calls, weekly meetings, or feedback sessions-help employees feel supported and valued.

Managers should ask about concerns upfront and provide constructive feedback to ensure a smooth transition.


Effective remote onboarding isn’t just about sending a few emails and hoping for the best. It’s about creating an experience that makes employees feel empowered, connected and confident in their new role. So, what will you do to make your remote employees feel truly at home?
To keep them highly motivated and Truly engaged with your company and your brand! This is the task that you best think about before hiring….

Key skills every remote employee should have

Working remotely is more than just changing from the office to a home environment. It requires a special approach and a set of skills without which it’s easy to get lost, lose productivity or lose touch with your team. Here are the key competencies that are especially important for successful work in a remote environment.

Strong discipline and self-organization
With no manager around and no office structure in place, it’s important to be able to plan your day, prioritize and meet deadlines on your own. It is especially important to have a place that is an “anchor” workplace and does not distract you with household chores

Communication skills
Remote work doesn’t tolerate reticence. Clear, structured written and verbal communication helps to avoid mistakes and maintain effective collaboration.

Technical literacy
Knowledge of tools – from video calls to task trackers – becomes a must. The more fluent you are in navigating the digital environment, the less friction there is in the workplace.

Ability to work independently
A remote employee should be proactive and be able to make decisions without expecting constant feedback.

Emotional intelligence
Understanding your own emotions and being able to “read” the state of others via text or screen is an important skill for maintaining a healthy team climate.

Flexibility and adaptability
Changes in schedules, projects, or tools are commonplace. The ability to reorganize quickly is especially valuable in remote teams.

Focus Skill
Working from home means being surrounded by distractions. The ability to focus and stay productive is critical.

Working remotely is a skill in and of itself. But with the right approach and conscious development of these qualities, it can be not only effective, but truly comfortable.
