New Employee Onboarding – questionnaire preview

The first weeks determine whether new employees settle in and stay. This template captures in a structured way how well training, team integration, tools and access, and role clarity work. This way you spot early where your onboarding process stalls and can adjust in a targeted manner – ideally after the first 30 to 90 days.

When should you use this template?

This template is a great fit for:

  • After the first 30, 60 or 90 days of a new role
  • To continuously improve the onboarding process
  • After completing a structured onboarding plan

Frequently asked questions

When should I send the onboarding survey?
A fixed point after 30, 60 or 90 days works well. First impressions are still fresh and you can spot patterns across several new hires.
Are my answers shown to my manager?
That is up to you as the organisation. Communicate transparently in advance who sees the results. Aggregated reports protect confidentiality best.
