HR onboarding

[Robin Stemmers]

I am curious to know if anyone is using Jira for HR onboarding process.

Is there a demo that can be viewed?

Anyone using it successfully?

Hi @Robin Stemmers

It's a really common use case in Jira which I've worked on quite a few times, I'm sure many other people have as well. In fact, it justifies a template that's available from Atlassian: https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/templates/new-employee-onboarding

There's a bunch of topics to discuss around it, but obviously Jira is capable of approvals, limiting tickets to just their reporters and the HR team (issue security), sub-tasks for varying onboarding tasks from different teams (and auto-assigning these), etc.

I'd dive into it and see what you can achieve. Then, if you have any issues, come back here!

Hope that helps - Steve.

I am familiar with all that. I am curious to the user experience for the new person being employed.

How can it be customised for a great candidate experience?

Do you have a demo that can be shared perhaps?

There's a great guide here from Atlassian on how to customize the process to best suit your needs: https://www.atlassian.com/teams/hr/guide/employee-onboarding#employee-onboarding-process-steps

Moreover, I see there's plenty of YouTube videos available from third-parties describing the process and what can be achieved with customisation - it'll be worth checking these out as well.

Thank you

I will check YouTube.

There is an HR template that has request types for both onboarding and off-boarding. I have a HR project that we use for just that, besides other HR things like general questions, promotions/transfers etc.

Hi

I have seen the onboarding one. But I am trying to produce something that is as user-friendly to some external to the organisation

Hello @Robin Stemmers 
In my team we are using add-on for this purpose, so if you are okay with plugins you can try it as well. The BPM provides the ability to create workflows that streamline and automate various processes, including onboarding.

Once the process is set up in BPM, the employees' tasks will automatically transition from one department to another, as well as move through the necessary approval steps. The workflow will guide the tasks through each stage until the final form is submitted. This automation eliminates the need for manual handoffs and ensures a smooth and efficient progression of tasks throughout the onboarding process.

You can find this use-case overview in that article - Employee Onboarding in Jira
