The process of Onboarding actually starts right after an employee is offered until the day he joins us fulfilling all legal compliance and documentation. It is to keep in touch with an employee to ensure all documentary process are fulfilled and the queries of the employee is addressed.

 

Induction starts after the onboarding process, where in an employee is introduced to the Team, is briefed about the exact role he will be playing in the company. It is a process of making things easy for an employee to fit into the Organisation.
