Automating employee onboarding means using a platform that automatically triggers checklists, tasks, and communications from the moment a new hire is registered. Jestor lets you build this complete workflow — from documentation to training — without depending on IT.

## Why Manual Onboarding Creates Problems

Onboarding handled by email and spreadsheet is inconsistent: every manager runs the process differently, documents get lost, and new hires have no clarity about next steps.

- Without a system, required steps are skipped or done out of order
- No visibility into how many employees are being onboarded simultaneously
- HR loses hours chasing documents and responses manually

## How to Structure Automated Onboarding

- **Intake form:** the manager registers the new hire and the workflow starts automatically
- **Documentation checklist:** a list of pending items by role, with defined deadlines and owners
- **Automatic tasks by phase:** when one step is completed, the next is automatically created and assigned
- **Automatic notifications:** reminders to the employee and HR team without manual follow-up
- **Tracking dashboard:** an overview of all onboardings currently in progress

## Why Jestor Stands Out in Automated Onboarding

- Forms that automatically trigger complete workflows when submitted
- Tasks with subtasks and checklists tied to each phase of the process
- Native SLA: deadline tracking with automatic alerts for delays
- Document and email automation without middleware tools
- Customizable dashboards by profile — HR sees all onboardings; managers see only their team
