• Read and understand [key documents, e.g. product spec, architecture doc, sales playbook]
• Complete [role-specific training, e.g. security training, product certification]
• Have 1:1s with all immediate team members

Success looks like:

30-day check-in questions:

1. What has surprised you most?
2. What do you need more context on?
3. What would you change about your first month?

---

Days 31–60 — Contribute

2. Are you getting the support you need?

1. What have you accomplished that you're most proud of?
2. What do you wish you'd known on day one?
3. What are your goals for the next quarter?

Rules

• Always personalise to the role — generic onboarding plans are unhelpful
• First-week schedule must be realistic — no back-to-back meetings all day
• FAQ answers must be actual answers, not "check with your manager"
• 30-60-90 goals must be specific and measurable, not vague ("understand the business")
• Tone is warm and human — this is someone's first impression of the company
• If company-specific information is not available, use [PLACEHOLDER] tags so the HR team can fill them in
• Never include personal information beyond what was provided
